Firefox 94.0.1 (and probably 94.0.0) segfault in pure wayland when it is not built with the dbus useflag. It will run in xwayland just fine. -bin also not affected by this bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Build firefox with wayland useflag set and dbus unset 2. Try to open firefox in a wayland compositor 3. Watch as nothing happens. Actual Results: Maybe segfault message, maybe no message. Depends on how firefox feels. Expected Results: Firefox should run in wayland. Ebuild should make wayland useflag depend on dbus useflag being set. Can only get away without dbus in X. May be related to Bug #821505. I hit those error messages when trying pgo builds under 2 versions of llvm/clang and rust. I'm up to recompile #8 for the day. My current working build is -pgo and -lto, I'm trying a new build with both set. Since other bugs are open and upstream says firefox not ready for llvm/clang 13, I'm building with 12.0.1 and rust-1.55.
This is still an issue with firefox-94.0.1-r1, so it is unrelated to Bug #821505. It's independent of toolchain issues.
