Package: gnome-terminal Version: 3.10.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Following the following libglib2.0-0 upgrade to my testing system on 4/10/14 [UPGRADE] libglib2.0-0:i386 2.38.2-5 -> 2.40.0-2 every time a new terminal window or tab is opened messages of the following type are sent to the message log: (gnome-terminal-server:3575): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_settings_get: the format string may not contain '&' (key 'title' from schema 'org.gnome.Terminal.Legacy.Profile'). This call will probably stop working with a future version of glib. The 'key' in the message has also been seen to be 'monospace-font-name', 'font', and other gsettings keys pertaining to initializing a new terminal instance. I think the glib fix which triggered this behavior is this one (from the libglib2.0-0 changelog): commit 0f1579e62cded436c3fbfbeaf3130c8d8ffcb01c Author: Lars Uebernickel <l...@uebernic.de> AuthorDate: Sun Dec 8 17:30:33 2013 +0100 Commit: Lars Uebernickel <l...@uebernic.de> CommitDate: Mon Dec 9 15:51:56 2013 +0100 g_settings_get: only check for non-copying format string 396d40af introduced a redundant call to g_variant_check_format_string(). Checking whether the format string copies all values is enough. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719979 gio/gsettings.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) >From the bugzilla bug listed, we see: g_settings_get: check validity of format string Allow only format strings that copy all values (i.e, don't contain '&'), as the returned pointers might become invalid in some rare cases. <* snip *> From a quick scan for 'g_settings_get' in the gnome-terminal source we find the following calls using format string "&s": grep -r 'g_settings_get (' * src/terminal-prefs.c: g_settings_get (profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_VISIBLE_NAME_KEY, "&s", &text); src/terminal-prefs.c: g_settings_get (selected_profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_VISIBLE_NAME_KEY, "&s", &name); src/migration.c: g_settings_get (settings, TERMINAL_PROFILE_VISIBLE_NAME_KEY, "&s", &name); src/terminal-window.c: g_settings_get (profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_VISIBLE_NAME_KEY, "&s", &visible_name); src/terminal-app.c: g_settings_get (settings, key, "^a&s", &encodings); src/terminal-app.c: g_settings_get (app->desktop_interface_settings, MONOSPACE_FONT_KEY_NAME, "&s", &font); src/terminal-util.c: g_settings_get (child_settings, "host", "&s", &host); src/terminal-util.c: g_settings_get (child_settings, "authentication-user", "&s", &user); src/terminal-util.c: g_settings_get (child_settings, "authentication-password", "&s", &password); src/terminal-util.c: g_settings_get (proxy_settings, "autoconfig-url", "&s", &url); src/terminal-util.c: g_settings_get (proxy_settings, "ignore-hosts", "^a&s", &ignore); src/terminal-screen.c: g_settings_get (priv->profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_TITLE_KEY, "&s", &static_title); src/terminal-screen.c: g_settings_get (profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_ENCODING, "&s", &str); src/terminal-screen.c: g_settings_get (profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_WORD_CHARS_KEY, "&s", &string); src/terminal-screen.c: g_settings_get (profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_FONT_KEY, "&s", &font); src/terminal-screen.c: g_settings_get (profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_CUSTOM_COMMAND_KEY, "&s", &argv_str); src/terminal-screen.c: g_settings_get (priv->profile, TERMINAL_PROFILE_NAME_KEY, "&s", &profile_id); src/terminal-profiles-list.c: g_settings_get (a, TERMINAL_PROFILE_VISIBLE_NAME_KEY, "&s", &na); src/terminal-profiles-list.c: g_settings_get (b, TERMINAL_PROFILE_VISIBLE_NAME_KEY, "&s", &nb); Perhaps 's/"&s"/"s"/' would fix this? -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-terminal depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.18.0-1 ii gconf-service 3.2.6-2 ii gnome-terminal-data 3.10.1-1 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.8.2-2 ii libatk1.0-0 2.12.0-1 ii libc6 2.18-4 ii libdconf1 0.18.0-1 ii libgconf-2-4 3.2.6-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.40.0-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.12.0-4 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libuuid1 2.20.1-5.7 ii libvte-2.90-9 1:0.34.9-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-1 Versions of packages gnome-terminal recommends: ii dbus-x11 1.8.0-3 ii gvfs 1.20.0-1+b1 ii yelp 3.12.0-1 gnome-terminal suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
