gnome3.epiphany frequently crashes in webprocess #98819
Comments
IIRC this was always broken #32580, I do not see how sandboxing could make it any worse 😼 |
Interesting, when I first used epiphany in NixOS it actually worked fine (I stick to intel and amd graphics). I believe it was in 3.36 that I noticed that it became unusable. Though, the issue you mentioned seems to show the same output, but it was just for NVIDIA users (with the time gap between #32580 (comment)). I think it might be reasonable to assume that crash outputs in that bug report and this one are just red herrings. And epiphany doesn't give any useful output without extra switches? I will look at |
Maybe it actually is the acceleration https://gitlab.gnome.org/search?group_id=8&project_id=1906&repository_ref=master&scope=commits&search=acceleration&snippets=false |
I tried toggling different values that are supposed to change it in epiphany (with the wrapper exports dumped into the terminal env) https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME/Web#Hardware_accelerated_compositing and it didn't seem to prove a difference. |
It seemed that, at the time of gnome 3.36 it was these bugs that were the issues https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1132 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1128 (the bugs in webkitgtk that got reported got commit fixes though).

Yay, found a way to confirm this is a NixOS specific issue. I installed epiphany with flatpak and it works without this crash. |
Still the same issue after Gnome 3.38 upgrade. |
I just opened #107486 which solves this issue for me. I've only tested with the |

Describe the bug
Since GNOME 3.36 (which enabled sandboxing in epiphany) I would often see this crash in epiphany
and I can still reproduce this in GNOME 3.38.
Quite honestly epiphany in NixOS is broken. And it seems to be related to sandboxing and probably an issue in webkitgtk itself.
