Anybody else getting this behavior? Both the 2/19 and 2/20 builds crash on my machine (TiBook 500/10.3.2)

I've tried trashing prefs/bookmarks/anything camino (or even Mozilla) related to no avail.

BUT if I download the 2/18 build, all works fine.

So am I the only one? or....?

The latest Mac builds of Camino and Firefox (and presumably Mozilla) aren't working on Macs. I'm guessing it'll be fixed soon.

ok...

just sounds odd to see you say it that way (like Camino or Firefox builds *do* work on other platforms??!!)

Same here. The console log (which I can't be arsed to check right now) indicates an issue with Java.

there has been alot of talk on the mailing list. Should be cleared up in a day or two (I hope).

yep. No go. (are you saying they work for you?)

I'm glad they're aware of the problem (apparently, according to the discussion lists), but it seems odd for them to continue posting nightly builds that they know don't work.

Yeah, it would be nice if they just stopped posting Mac nightlies until they get this major bug worked out.
After all, there have been previous stretches when no nightlies were released.

by: Mike Pinkerton @ Camino mailing list -
Just wanted to let everyone know that the crashes at startup are because of Darin's string changes in static builds and are being worked on.

With things you mean close widgets in the tabs I assume. Those look ugly I think.

yep - not a fan of the close tab widgets, but I do like the icon changes - much better than those old ones.

Yes, I like those new icons as well. I'm just not the type of person to mention positive things by myself.

I like the new icons, and I love that you can closa a tab with a close-widget (weird that they haven't put that in earier earlier)

however, I like the firebird-icons and tabs better..
