Re: Surf browser crash

At first, I though that you think about 'netsurf' which is in main repo, but if you mean 'surf' which is in AUR, then you have to recompile it (probably).

Re: Surf browser crash

I was using my custom version, compiled by my self, but after the update of a package that i suspect is some of the above mentioned, it crash.
I try the AUR version too, and it doesn't work

Re: Surf browser crash

I think that the downgrade of one of this packages may solve the problem, but it isn't the optimal solution

Yes, I'm using this locale.

I have another computer air gapped with Arch and some obsolete packages, and works perfectly.

This problem occurred after a upgrade a few days ago.

Re: Surf browser crash

What locale? en_US.UTF-8 or zh_CN.UTF-8 ?
webkit2gtk is covered by https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Debuginfod which should hopefully get us a better backtrace, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Core_d … _core_dump
