hi all,
i installed mozilla-firefox (1.0.4-2sarge2) with aptitude, as recommended by
the security list, and now when i try to launch firefox it causes a
Segmentation fault.
i am running sarge with the stock (straight from apt) 2.6 k7 kernel.
i tried reinstalling the package to no avail.
here is the last few lines of 'strace /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox' though i'm not
sure if its all relevant.

Hey, I had the same problem when I updated earlier.
It already seems to be in the bugtracker:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=324473
My quickfix was to roll back a version, sorry I can't help with actually
fixing the segfault.
Cheers
Oliver
P.S. Sorry gnat, I accidentally sent a copy directly to you rather than
the list >.<
