Chromium Crashing on GMail

[finotti]

This is happening with my aptosid computer, I have not dist-upgraded my siduction laptop yet!


But since is coming from Debian, I suppose the problem would be the same.  The newest version of chromium (54.0.2840.101-1) crashes on GMail.  See: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=846015

I can confirm crashes with Gmail (and other sites) on siduction

Code: [Select]

$ apt-cache policy chromium
chromium:
  Installiert:           54.0.2840.101-1
  Installationskandidat: 54.0.2840.101-1
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 54.0.2840.101-1 500

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Thanks for confirming! 

The version from testing is working fine, so it can be a workaround for now.

When I upgraded Chromium on my laptop earlier this morning, there was a bug report stating that v54.0.2840.101 crashed on some sites.  Unfortunately, I didn't note the bug report number.

Edit:  Just dist-upgraded my desktop and noted the bug number:

I downgraded to chromium/stable as a workaround - the latest unstable crashed on some (also not complex) websites.

  Installiert:           53.0.2785.143-1~deb8u1

Careful: 55.0.2883.75-1 still crashes on many sites

Version 55.0.2883.75-2 finally solves the problem.
