This is all because of races in older versions of glibc. Namely those two (now fixed) bugs are at fault: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5058 (a.k.a. http://bugs.debian.org/443660) http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5443 (a.k.a. http://bugs.debian.org/456531)
In upstream glibc, those bugs are fixed with version 2.8. In Debian, 2.7-11 has the backported fixes. I have not been able to test on Ubuntu yet, but I assume this means the bug is in all versions before Intrepid. -- MASTER firefox crashed [...@vfprintf] ... -- libvlc.so.0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78725 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
