2.7.7 Bug Fixes: libxml violates the zlib interface and crashes (Mark Adler)
yep, i know, that is why i'm guessing this is a new bug :)
So is there any known or new problem of libxml2 2.7.7 with zlib 1.2.5? or should i try to build zlib with debug and report back?So 2.7.7 should avoid the bug precisely, but for any zlib more recent than 1.2.4 (IIRC) 2.7.7 should work, not crash. Are you sure it's not a problem with an embedded version of libxml2 in your browser ?
before i build the libxml2 with debug, gdb show the
correct system lib path, and after the debug build, gdb show the
correct backtrace... so i think its using the correct libxml2 2.7.7
also, is not just firefox, claws-mail RSS feed plugin is also
crashing, check my report when i found it here:
http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2268
and claws-mail was build my me and have for sure no internal
libxml2.
i can try to get a new backtrace for this one with the libxml2
debug build.
thanks in advance

Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the
leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a
simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or
a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of
the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are
being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country.
