I'm using b12 from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa on Ubuntu 10.10. 

Very often but not always Minefield hangs when I select Tools -> Extensions and has to be killed manually. After restart Minefield sometimes recognizes that it was killed and offers to rebuild the tabs, and sometimes it reloads the tabs as if nothing has happened. I haven't been able to find a specific pattern that causes this problem. However, it seems that this problem only occurs if under Tools "Extensions" are selected, but not with the other selections ("Get Extensions" etc.).

Here's my list of extensions:

Sorry - the bug description should say: "Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions" , of course.

I did try to reproduce issue, by installing the extensions presented above but I was not able.

Setting resolution to WFM. If you run into problem again and have clearer STR, feel free to reopen issue.
