Firefox and Qutebrowser segfault at start

[maciozo]

System

• xuname:

    dmesg: read kernel buffer failed: No such file or directory
    Void 4.19.19_1 x86_64-musl GenuineIntel uptodate rF
  

• package:
  • firefox-65.0_1
  • qutebrowser-1.5.2_1

Expected behavior

Running firefox or qutebrowser should start the respective browsers.

Actual behavior

Near-immediate segmentation fault

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Install firefox or qutebrowser
2. Run firefox or qutebrowser

Chromium runs fine.
Changing the stack size, as suggested by @Johnnynator using sudo chelf -s 1048576 /usr/lib/firefox/firefox seems to fix the issue, but is not a suitable permanent solution.

[Johnnynator]

For the record, firefox opens libxul via dlopen which is linked against libGL. So the Stack headers seems to get ignored (?).

@maciozo Can you verify that Firefox and qutebrowser no work without using chelf ( just reinstall them with xbps-install -f if they are modified)

[maciozo]

@Johnnynator, after reinstalling both firefox and qutebrowser, firefox starts up fine, but qutebrowser still segfaults.

I didn't run qutebrowser with chelf before.

None of the version numbers changed.

Sry I forget, qt5-webengine is borked either way on musl and not related to the firefox issue. #2368
