Bug 31128 – ASSERTION FAILED: !structure->isDictionary() in JavaScriptCore/runtime/Structure.cpp

• Component: WebKitGTK
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Michael Heide]

webkit-gtk 1.1.15.2
Browser: midori (from git)

Machine platform: MIPS
gcc - mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu-4.4.1
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=loongson2f -mabi=n32 -mplt -pipe"

Compiles fine.
Starting midori results in the attached gdb backtrace (while loading, before any window is rendered).

webkit-gtk 1.1.15 branched at a bad point -- you need to pick up a more recent revision.

[Michael Heide]

The whole 1.1.15?
Then I shouldn't even try 1.1.15.3?
It's the current stable!?
Ok, I will give 1.1.16 a try. Maybe the current development release is more stable than the stable<sic> one...

The failure you're seeing is an incorrect assertion -- it was fixed a few revisions after the revision that webkitgtk 1.1.15 branched from.  That said the error you're seeing is just that an _assertion_ it doesn't effect release builds at all.

i would assume 1.1.15.x where x is the most recent x will have picked it up.  This bug was filed weeks ago and the gtk folk were made aware of the issue so i assume it's been updated appropriately.
