 Posted: Tue Nov 10, 2009 5:45 am Post subject: [SOLVED] firefox segfaulting |
 |
|
a few days ago while trying to troubleshoot a different issue, my system froze......i did a hard reset (in hindsight i was lazy and should have rebooted via ssh).
anyhow, since then my firefox now segfaults on startup. this is under kde 4.34 and with mozilla 3.54
i did a hard disk check via a knoppix boot cd and my filesystem is fine...there were no errors or corruption reported.
i have tried re-emerging firefox, revdep-rebuild, wiping my /tmp directory, removing my .mozilla directory in the home drive, and numerous reboots.
upgrading from firefox 3.54 to 3.55 hasn't helped.
this is what i get at the console:

this has completely got me stumped.

ok....i tried unmerging firefox and emerging mozilla-firefox-bin.
now when i start firefox-bin i get:
| Quote: |
jk@calista ~ $ firefox-bin
jk@calista ~ $
(crashreporter:15343): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_set_sensitive: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
|
thinking maybe its something to do with gtk i've remerged any gtk related packages i have on my system:
gtk-engines wxGTK gtk+ webkit-gtk dev-python/pygtk dev-cpp/gtkmm
still broken

did you re-emerge xulrunner?
you can always try rebuilding all dependencies
| Code: | | emerge -aveDN mozilla-firefox |

I've had this same firefox & firefox-bin problem on Gentoo for months, but not necessarily after a system freeze. No amount of trying different portage or overlay firefox/xulrunner versions, or rebuilding all possible deps first, reboots, manually wiping /tmp and all possibly firefox related stuff and rebuilding, rebuilding world, different kernels, booted to kde3, kde4, kdesvn, Gnome, or Xfce4 works.
I've tried eveything I can think of, googled and searched forums for countless hours, but I'm still stumped. I've extensively explored and tested for $PATH problems, linkage problems, CFLAGS problems, symlink problems, ebuild problems, permissions problems, GTK problems, USE flag problems, corrupted source and/or other file problems, and even compiled manually in /home/wrc/firefox. Same results- no solution. What have I overlooked?
All versions of firefox have always worked fine on this box with many other distros, including Mandriva, Arch, PCLOS, OpenSuSe, etc., so it's definitely Gentoo related. I'm amazed everyone running Gentoo isn't experiencing this.
What could possible be locally wrong on my and a few other's Gentoo systems to be causing this?

It looks to me like there perhaps seems to be some sort of python issue.
What does eselect python list return?
What does ls -l /usr/bin/python* return? |

i know what you mean....i've spent a week trying to solve this and i'm at wits end now. i'm going back to 3.53-r1 as a last resort
if this box wasn't hosting my myth backend server i would have seriously considered wiping the box and switching distros.....first time i have ever had this thought since 2003.
the problem is i really need firefox and konqueror just doesn't cut it as a browser. i just find it really strange that not even the bin version works

It's possible that the problem is that python-wrapper. It used to be broken, then it was fixed, and now apparently it's broken again.
I threw it away a long time ago, masked it and all my stuff works just fine on ~i686 | Code: | # ls -l /usr/bin/python*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Nov 3 09:31 /usr/bin/python -> python2.6

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5292 Nov 3 09:30 /usr/bin/python2.6

A little pruning, as in emerge --depclean -av might be in order too.  |

Mike,
You mean just remove it, and no problems crop up?
I'm always worried messing with anything python after I lost python a few years ago and had a hard time recovering. 
I'll make a quickpkg python-wrapper first, though.
Hmmm. there is no python-wrapper- I don't get it. | Code: | gentoo wrc # quickpkg python-wrapper
* Could not find anything to match 'python-wrapper'; skipping
* No packages found
gentoo wrc # eix python-wrapper
No matches found.
gentoo wrc # |

Well, I just removed it, ran eselect python set python2.6 and never had a single problem at all.
You could just move it, say to your /root directory, to feel safer, but I assure you that you do not need it, at least not yet. In the future it may work properly all the time, then and only then I will unmask it on my box.
Your choice. |

Mike,
You must have posted just as I was posting the edit. I looked in /usr/bin, and python-wrapper is there, but emerge or portage doesn't seem to recognize it.
| Code: | gentoo wrc # emerge -Cp python-wrapper
>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:
--- Couldn't find 'null/python-wrapper' to unmerge.
>>> No packages selected for removal by unmerge |
Also says there are no ebuilds. Curious. guess I could just manually delete /usr/bin/python-wrapper, mask it, and check my world file.

Mike,
I renamed python-wrapper, and tried to emerge mozilla-firefox-bin, and got this: | Code: | gentoo wrc # emerge mozilla-firefox-bin
bash: /usr/bin/emerge: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
gentoo wrc # |
Apparently, python-wrapper is needed to emerge anything. Any other ideas? If you don't have python-wrapper, how are you emerging? 
EDIT:
Perhaps another clue? In all the firefox-bin ebuilds, the version of gtk+ is listed as >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.2.
I'm running ~x86 and ~amd64 boxes, and I have x11-libs/gtk+-2.18.3, which is the latest ebuild available in portage.
Do we need the mozilla or some other overlay that might have gtk+-2.2?

you didn't do eselect python set python2.6 to recreate the symlink correctly.
check it with eselect python show
or
eselect python list |

After you resolve your python issues:
For no other reason than a sneaking suspicion try this. It won't hurt. It's relatively simple. And it might, maybe actually help. | Code: | echo ">=sys-devel/binutils-2.20" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
emerge binutils
emerge gtk+ xulrunner mozilla-firefox |
If it works, this should mostly stabilize firefox for you.
Masking binutils-2.20 should bring you to binutils-1.19.1-r1. You may get better results with the earlier version of binutils.
Good luck!

Mike,
I had python 2.6 selected to begin with, but I did do | Code: | | eselect python set python2.6 |
before, AND afterwards too as I thought it might be the problem. Unfortunately, eselect python set python2.6 did not resolve the issue. I don't seem to have any problems with python, or for that matter anything else on this box. Revdep-rebuild reports everthing in a consistent state, so it's still a mystery. 
dufeu,
Thanks for the suggestion, but I've had this same problem (for months) long before the recent binutils-2.20 update, so that doesn't seem likely.
I'll give it some thought- maybe it's worth a shot. However, I just recently did an emerge -e @world on this box after the recent binutils, gcc, and glibc updates.

wrc1944,
have you in the past few months done or considered re-emerging all packages on your system? ie an emerge world ?
its a drastic action to take, but i'm thinking this might be my next step.....really clutching at straws here

Maybe python-wrapper now belongs to python-3 - not sure. If you have portage-utils check it with
| Code: | | qfile python-wrapper |
or gentoolkit | Code: | | equery b python-wrapper |
Why do you need python-3 ? |

About python3- it was installed during an update, but IIRC messed up stuff, so I reselected 2.6.
Should I remove and mask it?

I have it masked, only python-2.6 is installed - no python-wrapper and everything works great. | Code: | # eselect python list
Available python interpreters:
[1] python2.6 *
|
Of course you can unmerge python-3. Maybe that will solve that weird firefox problem - not sure, but sometime a little pruning can go a long way. |

Thanks Mike,
I'll give that a try tomorrow- running out of steam tonight.
EDIT: Couldn't wait- this is driving be nuts.
I did an emerge -C on python-3, and renamed /usr/bin/python-wrapper, and rebooted.
Same results. Firefox won't start, and can't emerge anything without python-wrapper. Otherwise, system seems to be functioning normally. | Code: | gentoo wrc # emerge -pv mozilla-firefox-bin
bash: /usr/bin/emerge: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory |
Looked in /etc/env.d/71firefox-bin, and it says: | Quote: | | LDPATH="/opt/firefox" |
So, I tried it from command line, and get same stuff I've gotten for months.
| Code: | wrc@gentoo ~ $ /opt/firefox/firefox-bin
Segmentation fault
wrc@gentoo ~ $ /opt/firefox/firefox
wrc@gentoo ~ $
(crashreporter:2705): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_set_sensitive: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed |
I've also tried from command line /usr/bin/firefox (the shell script), and /usr/bin/firefox-bin (the executable), and got the same results.
I'm going to once again boot with Arch and Mandriva, and see if I can get and clues.

after you renamed python-wrapper did you run eselect python ?
which version of app-admin/eselect-python is installed ?
mine is app-admin/eselect-python-20090606
Also, if you do in fact prune your python installation, run python-updater flat out, and to ensure system consistency, follow that up with: revdep-rebuild
emerge -uDNav world
emerge --depclean -av
revdep-rebuild
