gnomefreakdavid i am thinking about closing that bug since its the site not firefox10:17
gnomefreaksob10:24
dfarninggnomefreak, sorry I wasn't following10:25
gnomefreakdfarning: the crash bug on that blog link i gave was due to a file on the site10:25
dfarningHow can a file crash a browser?10:26
dfarningwas it media player related10:26
gnomefreakyes wmv file10:27
dfarningfx _should_ handle wmv more gracefully then to shut down;(10:27
gnomefreakdfarning: should yes but cant if you dont have the right codecs/player-plugins to veiw the restricted format10:28
dfarninggnomefreak, was it the media player that died bringing down fx or did fx die10:29
dfarningshould be able to tell from the stack trace10:29
gnomefreaknever got to play it. it tried to play it than poof (seems the site forces you to try and play it)10:29
gnomefreakthis is bad10:31
dfarningLet's ask asac to show us how to run gdb correctly and study the result together10:31
gnomefreakgive me a few i found a dupe of that bug from the backtrace10:31
dfarningok10:31

crimsun(someone in -bugs is inquiring)10:36
gnomefreakwith differnet options being ran.10:36
gnomefreakyou would have to know how to read a stacktrace for most part. unless he means apport-retrace10:37
gnomefreakthan its a bit more work10:37
crimsunthe latter10:37
dfarningcrimsun, what do you mean by breakdown10:37
crimsun16:34 < cowbud> is there a run down somewhere on using apport and all the files it produces?10:38
gnomefreakyeah kind of we are still working out the details on it (edgys apport is not good to run them with)10:38
gnomefreakit errors10:38
dfarninghttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs/Apport?highlight=%28CategoryMozillaTeam%2910:39
dfarningis a link to how we are using hooks10:39
gnomefreakalso edgys repos are not up to date so using the -d flag may not do it right eother10:39
dfarningcrimsun, I could email you the issues we have come across with apport and apport-retace10:41
=== gnomefreak came across all of them :(
dfarningdon't want to sound like we are whining but we do have some constructive feedback.10:42
crimsunif you've been in contact with Martin regarding said issues, then that's probably better10:43
gnomefreakwe have10:43
dfarningYes, all conversation has been with martin or on -dev10:43
gnomefreakjust waiting for him to get time to work on it afaik10:43
gnomefreakdfarning: im working on the normal way peopel should run backtraces if it produces more info as i think it will we need to update our wiki to run it like this10:45
gnomefreaksetting all the gdb options10:45
dfarninggnomefreak, ty10:47
gnomefreakyw10:47
dfarningIm not sure but to be as useful as possiable I belive that retrace -d needs to be  run in a chroot with all version matching the orginal reporters versions10:49
gnomefreakdfarning: if martins repo was up-to-date we could10:49
gnomefreakhe only has symbols for ff-2.0+0dfsg...10:50
gnomefreakwe could really use thunderbird-dbg or -dbgsym10:50
gnomefreakmartins feisty repo has it but not edgy10:50
dfarningdo we need to work to insure that -dbg ware present for all of our packages10:50
gnomefreakyes10:51
gnomefreakand depends10:51
gnomefreaki suggest (dont know how much work it will be) but i think we need to hold our own repo of dbg or dbgsym packages so we know they are up to date as we update a package we can update the -dbg. but apport looks to martins repo only10:52
dfarningput it on my task list10:52
gnomefreakso if we make -dbg we cant use the -d flash10:52
gnomefreakflag10:52
gnomefreak-d flag downloads -dbgsym from martins repo10:53
dfarningI thought -d grabbed -sbgsym from a repos in sources10:53
dfarnings/a/all10:54
gnomefreakwe dont have them in normal repos dbgsym is only in his repos i thought10:55
gnomefreakit seems gdb cant run firefox :(10:56
dfarningsince apport is a ubuntu wide tools would it make since to set globel standard to build -dbgsym across all packages and stick them in a repo10:57
gnomefreakwould have to ask martin but im 90% sure it uses his repo11:01
gnomefreakhow do i look up error codes for firefox?11:03
dfarningno idea11:04
dfarningwill look at martins repo11:04
gnomefreakdfarning: if you dont have his repo enabled just apt-cache search firefox and it wont list the -dbgsym unless its in one of ubuntu repos11:05
dfarningdfarning@dfarning-laptop:~$ apt-cache search firefox11:06
dfarningepiphany-browser - Intuitive GNOME web browser11:06
dfarningfirefox - lightweight web browser based on Mozilla11:06
dfarningfirefox-dbg - debugging symbols for firefox11:06
gnomefreakthe way i did it doesnt give any more info that makes me think ff isnt crashes11:06
gnomefreakdfarning: you dont see -dbgsym files though11:07
gnomefreakonly -dbg11:07
dfarninglets push it off to the correct media player11:08
gnomefreakand just that file isnt enough to get a good retrace you need to set up exactly what the user had (not as easy as it seems without the -dbgsym files11:08
dfarningtotem-mozilla?11:09
gnomefreakcant yet dont know what the users have (mostlikely totem-gstreamer but hell im using totem-xine)11:09
gnomefreakand its crashing here11:09
gnomefreakclosing11:09
gnomefreakno backtrace is able to be gotten so im assuming its closing not crashing11:09
dfarningwhere is martins repo?11:10
gnomefreakwilling to bet if they install mplayer with w32codecs and use it as default it will work fine but i cant say use w32codecs11:10
dfarningi agree11:10
gnomefreakdeb http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ddebs feisty main universe11:11
dfarningty11:11
gnomefreakim gonna add multiverse and restricted to that11:11
gnomefreaksee what i get than if anything more11:11
gnomefreakdfarning: yeah add restricted and mulitverse to that11:12
gnomefreakmultiverse even11:12
dfarningok11:13
=== dfarning browsing through the repo now
gnomefreakcrimsun: can you look at a bug or 2 for me :( i attached gdb output not really alot though11:13
dfarninghttp://lwn.net/Articles/201302/ good article on ddebs!11:15
gnomefreakyeah but i think he got busy with feisty stuff and hasnt had a chance to update his repos in a while but he is aware of the issues last i heard11:21
dfarningthe bit i am concered about is not keeping old version11:22
dfarningdon't we need them11:22
dfarning?11:22
gnomefreakwe do11:22
gnomefreakto retrace fx2.0+0dfsg... you need that version of fx11:22
gnomefreakthat was in edgy latest edgy is 2.0.0.111:23
dfarningWe could request that old firefox -dgsym be retained11:23
gnomefreakim happy with martins repos only issue is there is few fx and tb stuff including flash-dbgsym11:24
dfarningis the build system sticking the -dbgsym in his repo or is he doing it him self?11:24
gnomefreakso it needs major overhaul if we are gonna use it. if you run the -d flag it gives you lib... cant be found lib... cant be found for a bunch of libs we need dbgsym for to beable to get all symbols11:25
dfarningcould you put together an email about what you need/would like I'll turn it in to a spec or bring it up on -dev11:27
gnomefreakdont know what their plan is but atm its using martins repos is all i know and we need to get some more  in there to aid us in getting good stacktraces. hj... is going to an outside place to grab -dbg symbols to get his reports more or less full. but i dont see it being effeciant11:27
gnomefreakdfarning: that is a huge list. im not sure exactly what libs are needed i can really only give you like tb-dbgsym and flash-dbgsym java-dbgsym11:27
gnomefreakbut there are libs that are needed but either versions dont match or there are none. i can give you the report i got from apport and add those to the list but thats about it11:28
dfarninggnomefreak, was not thinking list rather over view of current failings and how to fix them;)11:29
gnomefreaki will start with what we need in the way of dbg/dbgsym packages that apport complains about but i cant tell you what package lib... belongs to11:30
