Description Rich Coe 2010-09-13 22:54:16 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100723 SUSE/3.6.8-0.1.1 Firefox/3.6.8

firefox crashed

I think it's trying to run a crash handler which then exits with the following
message:
/usr/lib64/firefox/firefox: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libkdecore.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZN9QListData6removeEi

decoded, this becomes:
/usr/lib64/firefox/firefox: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libkdecore.so.5: undefined symbol: QListData::remove(int)


Reproducible: Didn't try
Comment 1 Christian Trippe 2010-09-14 19:19:56 UTC
Which version of Firefox and KDE are you using. What are you doing to make Firefox crash?
Comment 2 Rich Coe 2010-09-14 19:43:37 UTC
MozillaFirefox-3.6.8-0.1.1.x86_64

libkdecore4-4.4.4-2.5.x86_64

firefox was up -- didn't do anything special.
May have been exiting the browser with 'Quit'.
Comment 3 Forgotten User CunbbxOMX7 2010-09-24 03:14:27 UTC
I see the same error as well, always reproducible, essentially whenever firefox is closed normally.

MozillaFirefox-3.6.10-30.1.x86_64 (from the Mozilla repo)

libkdecore4-4.5.1-3.5.x86_64 (from the KDE:Release:45 repo)

An observation, if it helps, is that this error does not occur if there is already an instance of Firefox running and I start another one from the command line.

Like I say, this is very reproducible here.  I'll be happy to provide any additional information that I can.
Comment 4 Forgotten User CunbbxOMX7 2010-09-29 16:45:53 UTC
It seems that maybe libproxy1-config-kde4 is related? (see information below).

When this package is uninstalled the error message is not present when closing firefox. Reinstallation cause the error message to reappear.  This package is not present in the KDE:Release:45 repo.
