Expected results:


Additional info:

Since /usr/bin/thunderbird is a shell script, I cannot gdb it. However, starting
it from an xterm gives me this :

[arares@localhost ~]$ thunderbird
Assertion 'pthread_mutex_unlock(&m->mutex) == 0' failed at pulsecore/mutex-posix.c:108, function pa_mutex_unlock(). Aborting.
/usr/lib64/thunderbird-3.0b2/run-mozilla.sh: line 131:  2678 Aborted                 "$prog" ${1+"$@"}

Comment 1 Aioanei Rares 2009-07-28 14:31:47 UTC
Upon further testing, I discovered that it crashes in Gnome and fluxbox too.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2009-11-16 11:08:22 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle.
Changing version to '12'.

adjusting summary per comment #1.

Fwiw, I use Thunderbird daily (on kde), been rock-solid from my own experience.

Comment 4 Matěj Cepl 2009-12-14 12:03:53 UTC
Are you able to reproduce this issue with the upstream binary? Did abrt go up when thundebird crashes?
