Package: libnxml0 Version: 0.18.3-2 Severity: normal I had some crashes with newsbeuter. After some investigations I discovered the cause: an unescaped ampersand. Galeon (the browser I use, gecko-based) throws an XML parsing error, while newsbeuter crashed with segfault. Could the library fail gracefully instead of dying miserably?
I attach the backtrace obtained with lib{nxml,mrss}0-dbg packages, and the
culprit xml.
