I just emerge --update --deep system and the next thing i know, mozilla firefox 0.8 kept crashing whenever i go to www.linuxtoday.com and mail.yahoo.com. I then upgrade my mozilla firefox to 0.9.3 but it still have the same behavior. However, later I discover that whenever Javascript is disabled, these site is ok without crashes. With mozilla-firefox 0.8 i did a gdb --pid=#pid-of-firefox and when it crashed, the backtrace shows that it is in libpthread. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge --update --deep system 2. emerge --update --deep mozilla-firefox 3. enable javascript in mozilla-firefox 4. go to www.linuxtoday.com Actual Results: mozilla-firefox just exit all of a sudden while the page was loading Expected Results: load the page smoothly.

Happend the same using freetype 2.5.9 ( wich I need with Gimp 2.2 ) and loading http://asterx.upc.es/
This should be closed... this was a bug with freetype not being binary compatible, but its long since been fixed.
Closing.
