Details

Description:

When using the "current kde theme" setting for the gtk-qt-engine firefox will segmentation fault on startup; other gtk2 and gtk apps (including gimp, putty, emacs, chromium) seem unaffected. Segmentation faults only occur when using "current kde theme" (set to "oxygen") or "qt theme". actual gtk themes such as "cleanlooks" will result in firefox starting successfully. This bug only affects gtk-qt-engine v 1.1.-2, the gtk-kde4
in community does not cause firefox to segmentation fault on startup, regardless of the the theme chosen.

Running firefox is "safe-mode" also results in a segmenation fault. The segmentation fault occurs after the the window firefox window is drawn by the xserver, but before the menus or startpage load; you just see the window decorations and a grey window interior for a split-second before the program crashes.

Additional in
* package version(s)
gtk-qt-engine-1.1-2
firefox 3.6.13-1
xulrunner 1.9.2.13-3
mozilla-common 1.4-1
qt 4.7.1-3
kdelibs 4.5.4-1

* config and/or log files etc.
The only output I get is
"Segmentation Fault"

Steps to reproduce:

I forgot, steps to reproduce:

1. Install kde4 w/ gtk-qt-engine and firefox
2. Open systemsettings, set style used in gtk applications to either current kde theme or qt theme
3. Open firefox or try and run firefox from a terminal emulator

Tested with a new user account, so it's probably not becuase I have bad config files in $HOME.

Also, this happens on x86, I haven't checked on an x86_64 system
