Bug Description

Binary package hint: chromium-browser

Every time I try to edit an event in Google Calendar, I get a renderer crash ("Aw, snap"). This worked fine with the beta PPA version, but crashes with the Lucid version. The backtrace looks like this:

marcelo says in upstream bug:
I have the same problem here when using Chromium 5.0.379.0 (39037) Ubuntu.

Editing event details works ok when using Google Chrome version 5.0.307.7 beta,
running on Ubuntu 9.10 (32bits).

Since we have 5.0.307.7 chromium, it feels like it is a chrome vs. chromium thing? we should check google-chrome-beta package to compare.

Please see http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=34725

The problem is that i recently dropped system-libxml2 because it was causing crashes (in-source libxml2 was heavily patched by upstream). Now, the crashes moved to system-libxslt (libxslt and libxml2 are tightly integrated).

I've just disabled all system libs and updated the chromium *beta channel* PPA.
Once it's built, could you please test and report the result to this bug so i can update Lucid.
Thanks.

This bug was fixed in the package chromium-browser - 5.0.307.7~r38400+0-0ubuntu1

---------------
chromium-browser (5.0.307.7~r38400+0-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * Disable WANT_SYSTEM_LIBS since it makes Gmail/GCal crash (libxml,
    libxslt, ..). See http://crbug.com/34725 (LP: #522078)
    - update debian/rules
