Package: mozplugger
Version: Causes iceweasel to crash with SIGBUS (Bus error)
Severity: important


A few days ago Iceweasel started to crash on startup. It does it on an
old install AND on a fresh install. The last time this happened
(bug ID 535092) it was apparently caused by a bug in dlopen in libc6.
So this time I reinstalled all the debugging versions of all the
libraries and iceweasel to see if it was the re-emergence of
the same bug, but it didn't seem to be.

I had to install a few more dbg packages to finally track the crash into
mozplugger. There is no package called mozplugger-dbg, so I tested next
by removing the whole package instead.

After removing mozplugger my iceweasel now starts up OK.
