Package: gqview Version: 2.0.1-1 Severity: normal gqview sometimes crashes under the following conditions: I have a list of images and I go through the images from top to bottom, for each image: * left-clicking on its name to display it * in some cases (if it has to be rotated), right-click on its name, select Edit, select "in Rotate jpeg clockwise", and now RAPIDLY press the "Close" button on the dialog box that pops up to inform me about the result of the Edit operation.
This is difficult to reproduce (even locally), but it occurred three times for a list of 300 images of which I rotated about thirty. So, assuming that it only occurs when performing the rotate operation, the chances are about 10% that gqview crashes. It seems to be some sort of race condition or timing issue: the update of the list of files seems to occur in a different thread than the image display update and if I see it correctly, the popup dialog also has its own thread. The crashes seemed to happen only when I gathered some speed, operating faster than gqview could update its list or image display. The error messages during the crashes were as follows: > gqview Segmentation fault > gqview (gqview:14218): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_string_append: assertion `val != NULL' failed (gqview:14218): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_string_append: assertion `val != NULL' failed (gqview:14218): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_string_append: assertion `val != NULL' failed (gqview:14218): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_string_append: assertion `val != NULL' failed (gqview:14218): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_string_append: assertion `val != NULL' failed Segmentation fault > gqview Segmentation fault If somebody has more suggestions about how to debug this issue, let me know. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gqview depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.4-3 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-7 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.14.8-5 Layout and rendering of internatio Versions of packages gqview recommends: ii libjpeg-progs 6b-13 Programs for manipulating JPEG fil -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
