Since the latest upgrade Firefox segfaults at startup. I can open the profile selector (firefox -P) but starting it normally (or selecting a profile), I get a segfault. This also affects newly created profiles, not just existing ones. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start firefox Actual Results: Segmentation fault This is on AMD64 with Wayland (sway), Kernel 5.15.69

Can you get a backtrace with gdb?
Interestingly, I can't. It seems that if I start it directly as /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox, it works. It only segfaults when starting through the /usr/bin/firefox wrapper. This gives me something to poke around, I'll report back.
Okay, it only crashes if MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 This is what gdb says: Thread 1 "firefox" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007ffff6465921 in XInternAtoms () from /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 #0 0x00007ffff6465921 in XInternAtoms () at /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 #1 0x00007ffff30633fd in () at /usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so #2 0x00007ffff30610ba in () at /usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so #3 0x00007ffff30616c1 in () at /usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so #4 0x00007ffff321da9f in () at /usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so #5 0x00007ffff321e5ce in () at /usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so #6 0x00007ffff321e95a in () at /usr/lib64/firefox/libxul.so #7 0x000055555557c103 in () #8 0x00007ffff7bb634c in __libc_start_call_main () at /lib64/libc.so.6 #9 0x00007ffff7bb63fc in __libc_start_main () at /lib64/libc.so.6 #10 0x000055555557bbe1 in _start ()
I wonder, have you ran firefox-esr through xwayland previously? Nothing should change between 102.2.0 -> 102.3.0 really. Have you made changes to the ebuild or applied custom patches? Oh, maybe this is related after all? https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/www-client/firefox?id=78eb14ad88d022bff0d59ba4579e3ca29f0708d2 although I'm not 100 % sure how it would relate to the wrapper script. But ... wayland things?
I just checked my portage summary.log - it seems I upgraded directly from version 91.13.0. Maybe the change happened somewhere in between? Also, I have apparently had version 102.3.0 installed for about 2 weeks now, but I really have no idea whether I ever started the web browser during that time.
There might be... 91.13.0 had: --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk3-wayland while 102.3.0 is: --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk3-x11-wayland when wayland is enabled. Now both of these configure options *should* work exactly the same, but... maybe they don't? Could you try and replace "cairo-gtk3-x11-wayland" with "cairo-gtk3-wayland" in your 102.3.0 ebuild? This should work too: EXTRA_ECONF="--enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk3-wayland" emerge -av firefox but make sure it does get enabled. If you edit your ebuild, remember to git restore it back before next emerge --sync, or edit it in your own overlay (make sure the overlay ebuild is emerged)
Thanks, I'll try.
Unfortunately that didn't help, I'm still getting segfaults.
This feels similar to bug 866151. Could it be the same root cause surfacing in a different way?
Stefan, could you show: emerge --nodeps -pv firefox:esr gtk+:3 emerge --info Also I guess the whole build.log could be helpful here to spot things related to Emily's suggestion. Firefox enabled wayland-only build "in theory" in version 101, so jumping from 91 to 102 there has indeed been a lot of wayland updates. You may also find more luck trying out the rapid version, which allows to build firefox without X support altogether.
I'll do some more experiments later and report back (unfortunately it takes a while to compile...) and also post a complete build log.

This might be #822237 - in other words, you might need +dbus with +wayland ALWAYS. This requirement has been patched away in our :rapid build but now I imagine I didn't backport the patch to :esr, and just forgot to reflect that in the ebuild.

I tried upgrading to version 105.0.2 and that fixed the problem for me.

Btw, a workaround to circumvent this crash might be to start firefox with the --no-remote flag.
