927480 - No symbols/(deleted) for libraries initialized after the crash reporter is initialized

Status: NEW

(Toolkit :: Crash Reporting, defect)

Description

"FWIW, my guess for the (deleted) is that the crash reporter is not using the data the linker is providiving to it for that library and uses /proc/self/maps instead. Might have to do with the lib being loaded after the crash reporter is initialized. That'd be a bug to file in itself, because if a lib is elfhacked (which omxplugin is not, fortunately) it means the symbols would be wrong."

bug 689178 would actually fix this, if Ted reviewed the upstream patches...
