Hi Riccardo,

thanks for your observations!

Looks like finally found the root cause for making GWorkspace
malfunction on i386!

I don't get any further than what is shown on the screenshots and no
further interaction is possible with GWorkspace.

But if you are using GWorkspace, I don't see how libAddressView can be
involved?
It comes from AddressManager and is not referenced once in the
GWorkspace code!!!

You mention you have no issues on 64bit intel. Would you mind doing an
ldd on both binaries?

I have uploaded various ldd output files to the
https://wmlive.rumbero.org/NSInvalidArgumentException.png/ folder.

I didn't attach them to this mail because they probably don't matter any
more due to your hint at libAddressView, as outlined further down.

some stuff comes in only because I have PDF support . It is scary to
have  libnghttp in twice... and no clue what pulls it in.
But if you see, no reference to libAddressView at all!

That's an interesting obervation!

There is a package named 'addresses-goodies-for-gnustep' containing
"VCFViewer - A GWorkspace inspector for viewing .vcf files".  I had this
package installed and apparently this pulls in libAddressView. In amd64
this doesn't provoke GWorkspace any different, but in i386 it obviously
does.
Once i deinstalled 'addresses-goodies-for-gnustep' on i386, GWorkspace
worked fine as expected.

Searching for the keyword 'subviews' in the sources of
'addresses-for-gnustep' these matches are found:

[addresses-for-gnustep-0.4.8] # grep -rsi subviews *
AddressManager/Controller.m:  [clipView setAutoresizesSubviews: YES];
Frameworks/AddressView/ADSinglePropertyView.m:  [self

Frameworks/AddressView/ADPersonView.m:  while([[self subviews] count])

Frameworks/AddressView/ADPersonView.m:  for(i=0; i<[[self subviews]

objectEnumerator];
Goodies/VCFViewer/VCFViewer.m:  [cv setAutoresizesSubviews: YES];
[addresses-for-gnustep-0.4.8] #

Unless i am not utterly mistaken, then the debugging should probably
rather continue with 'addresses-for-gnustep'.

Does this make any sense?

Thanks,
Paul
