Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xulrunner

  The recent upgrade to libcairo2-1.8.10-2ubuntu1 exposes a bug in xulrunner 1.9.1 (the upstream bug is here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522635).
  In the case of Eclipse, this causes a crash when the extra documentation popup disappears from the right of the content-assist popup menu (i.e. when an item is selected and the menu is no longer needed).
  If I set the environment variable GRE_HOME to some nonsense path, Eclipse works fine (it uses a simpler rendering technique for the documentation window).
  Installing xulrunner 1.9.2 (I used the mozilla-daily ppa) fixes the problem. Since several packages depend on xulrunner (yelp, couchdb-bin, eclipse-platform, miro, libgjs0, gnome-shell, etc) it would be advisable to upgrade xulrunner to prevent the bug from appearing in the LTS.
