Package: libgnomeui-0 Version: 2.14.0-1 I actually noticed this trying to run galeon (which used to work, but I last did it a few months ago), but I noticed that the crash notification program was itself crashing, and figured that would be a better test case.
Unfortunately, although only a 16K binary, it's linked to an unbelievable number of libraries, and the problem's probably in one of the libraries. Still, I got an xtrace and an ltrace of the event. The ltrace proceeds as follows 7832 __libc_start_main(0x8048e20, 3, 0xafab0e54, 0x80495e0, 0x8049650 <unfinished ...> 7832 memset(0xafab0d34, '\000', 140) = 0xafab0d34 7832 sigaction(11, 0xafab0d34, NULL) = 0 7832 bindtextdomain("libgnomeui-2.0", "/usr/share/locale") = "/usr/share/locale" 7832 textdomain("libgnomeui-2.0") = "libgnomeui-2.0" 7832 gnome_client_disable_master_connection(0x804972f, 0x479d3844, 0, 135168, 0) = 0 7832 gnome_init_with_popt_table(0x8049745, 0x804973e, 3, 0xafab0e54, 0 <unfinished ...> (child 7833 is alive briefly and exits) (child 7834 is alive and logs things as "gconfd") 7832 <... gnome_init_with_popt_table resumed> ) = 0 7832 memset(0xafab0d34, '\000', 140) = 0xafab0d34 7832 sigaction(11, 0xafab0d34, NULL) = 0 7832 poptGetArgs(0x805aca8, 0xafab0d34, 0, 0xafab0e54, 0) = 0x805ac30 7832 g_path_get_basename(0xafab16db, 0xafab0d34, 0, 0xafab0e54, 0) = 0x8093e48 7832 __strtol_internal("1", NULL, 10) = 1 7832 g_strsignal(1, 0, 10, 0, 0) = 0x8093ef8 7832 g_locale_to_utf8(0xafab16db, -1, 0xafab0dc0, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x8093f40 7832 dcgettext(0, 0x8049930, 5, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x8049930 7832 g_strdup_printf(0x8049930, 0x8093f40, 5, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x80b10a0 7832 g_getenv(0x804975f, 0x8093f40, 5, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0 7832 dcgettext(0, 0x804995c, 5, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x804995c 7832 g_strdup_printf(0x8049a04, 0x80b10a0, 0x804995c, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x80b1230 7832 g_free(0x80b10a0, 0x80b10a0, 0x804995c, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x479ea8a4 7832 g_free(0x8093f40, 0x80b10a0, 0x804995c, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x479ea890 7832 g_free(0x8093e48, 0x80b10a0, 0x804995c, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x479ea890 7832 g_strdup(0xafab16db, 0x80b10a0, 0x804995c, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 0x8093e48 7832 gtk_window_set_default_icon_name(0x804977b, 0x80b10a0, 0x804995c, 0xafab0dc4, 0) = 1 7832 gtk_message_dialog_new_with_markup(0, 1, 3, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0x80b9008 7832 gtk_dialog_get_type(0, 1, 3, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0x80b1468 7832 g_type_check_instance_cast(0x80b9008, 0x80b1468, 3, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0x80b9008 7832 gtk_dialog_set_default_response(0x80b9008, -7, 3, 0, 0x80b1230) = 1 7832 g_free(0x80b1230, -7, 3, 0, 0x80b1230) = 217 7832 g_find_program_in_path(0x8093e48, -7, 3, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0 7832 g_type_check_instance_cast(0x80b9008, 0x80b1468, 3, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0x80b9008 7832 gtk_dialog_add_button(0x80b9008, 0x80497a3, 0, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0x808c4b0 7832 g_find_program_in_path(0x80497ad, 0x80497a3, 0, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0 7832 g_getenv(0x80497ca, 0x80497a3, 0, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0 7832 g_type_check_instance_cast(0x80b9008, 0x80b1468, 0, 0, 0x80b1230) = 0x80b9008 7832 gtk_dialog_run(0x80b9008, 0x80b1468, 0, 0, 0x80b1230 <unfinished ...> 7832 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) --- 7832 +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++ (child 7834 continues with gconf_log and lots of CORBA calls) The tail of the corresponding "xtrace -e -n" output goes: 000:<:028a: 16: Request(84): AllocColor cmap=0x00000021 red=0xffff green=0x9999 blue=0x5555 000:>:0x028a:32: Reply to AllocColor: red=0xffff green=0x9999 blue=0x5555 pixel=0x000000f0 000:<:028b: 16: Request(84): AllocColor cmap=0x00000021 red=0xffff green=0x9999 blue=0xaaaa 000:>:0x028b:32: Reply to AllocColor: red=0xffff green=0x9999 blue=0xaaaa pixel=0x000000f1 000:<:028c: 16: Request(84): AllocColor cmap=0x00000021 red=0xffff green=0xcccc blue=0x5555 000:>:0x028c:32: Reply to AllocColor: red=0xffff green=0xcccc blue=0x5555 pixel=0x000000f2 000:<:028d: 16: Request(84): AllocColor cmap=0x00000021 red=0xffff green=0xcccc blue=0xaaaa 000:>:0x028d:32: Reply t000:>: still waiting for reply to seq=01fe 000:>: still waiting for reply to seq=01fe o AllocColor: red=0xffff green=0xcccc blue=0xaaaa pixel=0x000000f3 000:<:028e: 20: Request(56): ChangeGC gc=0x02800009 values={clip-x-origin=-403 clip-y-origin=-94} 000:<:028f:424: Request(72): PutImage format=ZPixmap(0x02) drawable=0x02800024 gc=0x02800009 width=20 height=20 dst-x=14 dst-y=6 left-pad=0x00 depth=0x08 000:<:0290: 20: Request(59): SetClipRectangles ordering=YXSorted(0x02) gc=0x02800025 clip-x-origin=0 clip-y-origin=0 rectangles ={x=36 y=6 w=35 h=20};

Reproduced on two separate Solaris boxes. Solaris 9 with a 24-bit display worked as expected. konqueror works fine on Solaris 2.7. (And, as I said, galeon used to work.) If some X protocol or Gnome library wizard can suggest steps for further narrowing down the problem, I'd be happy to do more testing. I understand that isolating it to gtk_dialog_run() is not the most precise bug report. Thanks! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
