In Debian sid, Firefox 48.0-1+b1 has been rebuilt against libvpx4 and it segfaults at startup when NoScript is enabled.

Does it work with the official Mozilla build?

Thank you for testing that.

This is therefore a bug in Debian's build of Firefox, please report to them.

Turns out it was related to this: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo ... bug=836533
48.0-1+b1 was built with GCC 6 but that was not mentioned in the changelog, so libvpx4 was only incidental.
