Details

bug 1139604 had a log with a crashtest assertion whose stack frames didn't have symbols. reftest should be using fix_stack_using_bpsyms to symbolicate them: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/layout/tools/reftest/runreftest.py#452 I don't know why this didn't work here. When I downloaded the symbols for that build and piped the log through my local copy of fix_stack_using_bpsyms it produced sensible output, so maybe something is mucked up inside the harness?
Fwiw, I've run into this on try a bunch of times in the last few weeks, and it's made debugging try failures a real PITA...
Severity: normal → major
Seems like the problem is that mozinfo.info.get('debug') isn't actually true in debug builds.
