[Bug 837685] Re: Firefox segfaults on launch on armel

 

The upload I just did should fix this, although I forgot to add the bug
number to the changelog:

firefox (7.0~b4+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * New upstream release from the beta channel (FIREFOX_7_0b4_BUILD2)

  [ Chris Coulson <chris.coulson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> ]
  * Update globalmenu-extension to 2.0
    - Only update a menu in realtime if it's parent is opening. For all other
      times, just invalidate the menu. Avoids spamming dbus everytime
      something changes in the menu
    - When removing a menuitem from its parent, check that the index is
      in-bounds. Should fix a frequent crash on startup, although it doesn't
      explain how it gets in to that state in the first place
    - Add the ability to turn on debugging without building Firefox with
      debugging on
  * Add upstream patch to only add ENABLE_JIT=1 to CXXFLAGS if any of trace/
    method/yarr jit is enabled. Fixes a build failure on PPC
    - add debian/patches/only-add-ENABLE_JIT-to-CXXFLAGS-if-jit-is-enabled.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
  * Add upstream patch to fix build failure with ENABLE_YARR_JIT=0
    - add debian/patches/build-fix-for-no-ENABLE_YARR_JIT.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
  * Add upstream patch to work around a linker bug
    - add debian/patches/compile-pldhash-as-C++.patch
    - update debian/patches/series

  [ Jamie Strandboge <jamie@xxxxxxxxxx> ]
  * AppArmor
    - debian/usr.bin.firefox.apparmor.11.04: update for
      /sys/devices/system/cpu (LP: #819479)

Although, I'm just guessing that it's fixed, as I don't have any way of
testing it. If it's still broken, someone else will have to debug it

** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu Oneiric)
