I've been continually getting shutdown crashes with the following error:
firefox-bin: /build/buildd/libcairo-1.4.10/src/cairo-scaled-font.c:617: cairo_scaled_font_destroy: Assertion `scaled_font->ref_count > 0' failed.

we should probably not call cairo_debug_reset_static_data in opt builds..

this should disable it in non-test builds

I wonder if that should be disabled for system cairo too (as we'd be sharing the cairo).

To work-around this crash we may need to do the same here:

fix

This partly fixes a shutdown crash that I hit almost every day or every other day.

This is still showing up in latest builds:

This should be a beta blocker, imho. I think this is how to nominate?

Comment 9

[Damon Sicore (:damons)]

That'll work, Reed.  

Comment 10

[Stuart Parmenter]

I don't think this should block beta unless something bad is happening as a result of the crash.

That said, I don't see how we would be calling that function with that set of ifdefs given the logs from the nightly builds.

Comment 11

[Stuart Parmenter]

While I don't think it should block, if we can find a fix shortly, we should probably land it for M9.

Attachment: don't pango_fc_font_map_shutdown in release builds

(gtk may still be using the fontmap so I wonder whether we should not shut this down until after closing the display.)

gfxPangoFonts.cpp revision 1.110.

Comment 15

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

Reed: Since you have been seeing this crash, would you mind checking the latest nightly to see if you are still seeing it? Thanks.

I still get this abort & crash in Linux debug builds, but not in release builds.  See bug 402785.
