F24 Alpha seamonkey segmentation fault on upgraded profile

[Viorel Tabara]

Hello,

I'm a new contributor to Fedora and this is my first time helping out with 
testing so I'm not sure where to report, in what format and everything else 
that is explained in the QA documentation pages that I haven't read yet.

I upgraded from F23 and as per subject line Seamonkey segfaults on the existing 
profile.

Here's a rundown of my tests:

- Desktop: XFCE
- Version: seamonkey-2.40-1.fc24.x86_64 
- Configuration:
   - one profile
   - password protected (i.e. master password set which triggers the password 
     prompt upon startup)
   - no addons

How I tested:

1. Start Seamonkey.
2. Enter the master password.
Result: Segmentation fault.

1. Start Seamonkey.
2. At the master password prompt press ESC.
Result: Segmentation fault.

Next, I created a new profile 'test', set it as default and re-tested:

- No master password:
   1. Start Seamonkey.
   - Result: Pass.
- With master password:
   1. Start Seamonkey.
   2. Enter master password.
   - Result: Pass.

I can provide a gdb backtrace.

Looking forward to more testing fun.

Hello Viorel,

Thank you very much for testing.

If you haven't already done it, please open a bug report on Bugzilla (h
ttps://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi), providing the explanations
and the information you wrote here.

Also, if you have got backtraces, feel free to upload them there, as
they will certainly be useful, in order to debug the issue.

Feel free to ask here if you have got any questions regarding Bugzilla.

Cheers.
Giulio

To be precise - since navigating Bugzilla can be tricky the first time!
 - select Fedora as the 'classification' and the 'product', then
seamonkey as the component (if you just type 'seamonkey' into the box
it should find it for you after a second or two) and set the 'version'
to 24. Then provide a summary and a description, and attach the
backtrace if you can. The other fields aren't so important.

Thanks a lot for testing!

Tonight while testing whether the crash happens with a new profile added to the 
F23 config and then transferred over to the F24 box, abrt kicked in so I went 
through the process of submitting a bug report which did a much better job of 
collecting information than I did.

Thanks for testing all the Fedora editions I've been enjoying for many years ;)
