Linux SeaMonkey crashes for me when trying to use the roaming profile feature. I have it enabled for one of my profiles (a new profile created specifically for this), and when I start up SeaMonkey it brings up the dialog box for loading a roaming profile, then it crashes. I see this stacktrace: #0 0x00b89100 in nsPathsDirectoryEnumerator::~nsPathsDirectoryEnumerator () from ./libxpcom_core.so #1 0x00c898f7 in NSGetModule () from /home/gifford/seamonkey/components/libnecko.so #2 0x00c897c7 in NSGetModule () from /home/gifford/seamonkey/components/libnecko.so #3 0x00c89f3e in NSGetModule () from /home/gifford/seamonkey/components/libnecko.so #4 0x00c88a0f in NSGetModule () from /home/gifford/seamonkey/components/libnecko.so #5 0x00c89574 in NSGetModule () from /home/gifford/seamonkey/components/libnecko.so #6 0x00b69aad in nsCOMPtr_base::~nsCOMPtr_base () from ./libxpcom_core.so #7 0x00c9a03a in NSGetModule () from /home/gifford/seamonkey/components/libnecko.so #8 0x00c99de4 in NSGetModule () from /home/gifford/seamonkey/components/libnecko.so #9 0x00a71067 in ??

BTW, roaming profiles crashed for me under a wide variety of circumstances; let me know if you'd like me to investigate further and file more bugs.

it does not crash, if you create empty listing.xml on your ftp server. (seamonkey nightly 2005101305)

This might be fixed by the "if (!success)" part of the patch in bug 249343 (attachment 2011127 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=201127>).
