Bug#1019334: Webkit2gtk - Bug Report

[Henning Sprang]

Package: webkit2gtk

Version: 2.36.7-1~deb11u1

Hello,

Since I have made the upgrade as described in details below in the apt
history, invlolving multiple binary üackages from the here mentioned source
üackage, I have massive problems with Webbrowsers constantly crashing as
soon as I do anything serious on webpages with JavaSCript in them. It's
basically impossible to continuously work with such browser based
applications for 15min in a row.

I first thought it could be a gnome-shell issue because I have also log
output about problems with gnome-shell when the error happens, but the
occurrence of the problem appears since the update described below, and
there is no update of gnome shell to be seen in recent apt history.

This is happening in a virtualbox vm, I already took care to update all
libraries on the host and reinstall the most current and matching guest
additions package in the Debian guest  VM.


I can reproduce the problem by:

* starting a Browser (same effect no matter if it's firefox-esr, chromium
or chrome, others not yet tested)

* start using a JavaSCript-heavy web application, like Mattermost, Jira,
Confluence

* after some actions - things that you "normally" do in these apps like
looking at documentation pages, reading chat messages, looking at or
editing bug tickets, I experience either gnome-shell unwillingly restart,
and the browser crashing and showing it's crash reporting window


Sorry if this bug report does not adhere to all rules that it should - I
had trouble to find out what I really need to put into from the debian docs
and wiki pages that try to explain it, and wasn't able to understand
reportbug's usage properly. But I want to get this information to you so it
might help improving Debian.

Please ask me if there is any missing information I should add to make this
report really helpful.
