Bug 317333 – dev-java/icedtea6-{bin-,}1.8.0 crashes net-libs/webkit-gtk

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Maciej Piechotka 2010-04-26 18:23:47 UTC]

icedtea6-1.8.0 crashes www-client/epiphany. Both pre-compiled and portage-compiled versions both with gcc 4.4 and 4.5 (as in all system).

I'm not quite sure how many people are affected but possibly those packages should block each other.

Reproducible: Always

This looks more like an icedtea regression than a epiphany problem (at least for now)

Please tell what epiphany version is failing for you

As it is problem in webkit (comments on http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=472 indicates that liferea & chrome are affected as well) - 1.2.x and at least some late 1.1.x of webkit-gtk[1]. 

I have no idea if x11-libs/qt-webkit is affected as well.

[1] 1.2 is in gnome overlay

I thought this bug was conntected to my recent problems with liferea, since the gdb backtrace ends in webkit-gtk, I have icedtea installed and comment 3 says liferea might be affected. I downgraded icedtea to 6.1.7*, rebuilt liferea and webkit-gtk. No change so far. What can I do to get liferea working again?

Ok, downgrading webkit-gtk to 1.2* seems to have worked.

All the involved versions are really old, please test with an updated system
