Subject: Epiphany browser crashes with a Bus error message on a Debian sparc system (Debian Squeeze)
Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2013 17:08:01 +0100
Package: epiphany-browser

Version: 2.30.6

epiphany browser crashes with a "Bus error" message on a debian-sparc
machine. It crashes before starting and before being able to insert
any URL and it does so systematically.

Debian version : "6.0.6"
uname -a : "Linux octopussy 2.6.32-5-sparc64-smp #1 SMP Sun Sep 23
11:15:08 UTC 2012 sparc64 GNU/Linux"

It is a Sun T1000 machine.

Core file is generated and here is the back-trace :

...
Loaded symbols for /lib/libnss_dns.so.2
Core was generated by `epiphany-browser'.
Program terminated with signal 10, Bus error.

Is there more information needed ?
