[Bug 1474003] Re: Firefox 39 keeps crashing

 

Despite trying at various points throughout the day, I've not been able
to make it crash at all. I've been using it on Trusty/x86-64 for the
last hour and a half or so and it's not crashed once.

There must be something I'm missing here. Have you installed any third
party software at all? We had a problem a couple of weeks ago where
people were reporting Firefox not starting, and it turned out to be
caused by a dodgy Sophos AV update.

Title:
  Firefox 39 keeps crashing

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Firefox 39 keeps crashing after update from Firefox 38.
  Crashes are random but when idle happens at least once a hour or more frequently when actively used.

  When replaced with binaries from Mozilla there is no problems at same
  machine with same profile.

  There are at least 1100 identical reports and they seems to be unique
  for Ubuntu build.

  Below is part of crash report:
