>Description:
The epiphany and galeon-devel programs crash whenever you try to use
any of the SSL features they have. Just trying to log into a site
using SSL results in a crash.
Even though, mozilla-gtk2 (used directly by the other two) works
perfectly, so it seems a problem either in epiphany / galeon-devel
themselves or, more likely, in some of the dependent libraries.
I see that both browsers get linked against libssl _and_ libnspr, so
maybe the problem is here (conflicts between libraries providing SSL
stuff... though this is just a guess). Not sure yet.
This is probably a bug in pkgsrc (not NetBSD specific), because those
programs work fine in other systems (w/o pkgsrc). I'm sending this
PR to remind myself to fix this... but if anyone else wants to help
debugging... ;)
>How-To-Repeat:
Open epiphany or galeon-devel.
Go to a site that uses SSL for login (i.e., Sourceforge).
Enter your username/password, hit "Login".
Crash.
