Thank you for the links.

The workaround you provide with setting WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 indeed avoids the coredump for me. Thank you!

However, this leaves me with more questions :)

Getting core dumps is not nice for users, and the setting is not easily guessable. So I assume applications should check more carefully before calling webkit-gtk, or set it up differently. Is there something I can tell the foliate developers to do to avoid the crash?

As an example for a positive experience with webkit-gtk in the same environment: I have been using gnucash for many years, and gnucash embeds a HTML viewer using webkit-gtk. I have never had a crash in gnucash because of this problem.
