Slackware 14.2 64bit
Hello folks - I have been 'talking' on
slackbuilds.org (SBo) about icecat 38.8.0, which I use, about a problem I came across with it crashing.
I've only noticed it when I was browsing the
twitter.com website and more specifically only when navigating away from that site. There may be other situations of course.
Even more, it would seem it happens only when logged in to twitter account; if not logged in, then no crash when navigating away.
Some contributors on SBo pointed out to me similar issues that they had found reported on other sites.
There has been some suggestion to build using a different parameter (with '-Os' instead of '-O2'.... i do not know what that does or how?) as a *work around*, but I have not tried it as yet.
As this issue has been around for a while it would seem and affected earlier releases too, is there any knowledge as to what it might be, as it seems Firefox does not appear to suffer the same problem from my experience?
I am sorry, but my skills do not allow me (yet) to provide the sort of detailed info that others produce, however there is a console output below, though relating to an earlier build of Icecat. It may be of some use. Hopefully just raising this issue as I found it, is enough to help others understand. If there is anything I can do (bearing in mind I use others' build scripts [SBo] for these things), please let me know.
Peace and best wishes.
