I finally convinced a sysadmin friend of mine that Debian was the way and the

There are no packages that have shared X11 libraries built with debugging

So the people who don't see crashes, which version of Netscape are you using?
Do you use java successfully in Netscape? Do you have plugger installed? Do
you have any other plugins installed? Which versions of libc are you using?

There are a couple packages which do this, mutt-i etc. I think they all make

So it's not a bug and we're satisfied with the following situation?
Some programs from other linux systems or even hamm systems will randomly seg
