Hello Timo, or anyone else affected, Accepted colord into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/colord/0.1.16-2ubuntu0.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance! ** Changed in: colord (Ubuntu Precise) Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to colord in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/844286 Title: colord crashed with SIGSEGV in dbus_message_get_reply_serial() Status in “colord” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “colord” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Status in “colord” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] This causes frequent crashes of the colord daemon for some users. For most users, the visible result of this will be an apport popup. For users who have calibrated their monitors, this will unset the calibration, causing the screen colours to change. [Test Case] I'm not able to reproduce this myself. However, this crash (and crashes like it) are pretty much *all* of the colord crash reports for 0.1.16-2 on errors.ubuntu.com. This should cook in -proposed until we're reasonably certain that these crashes no longer show up there. [Regression Potential] Low. The upload adds a single call to dbus_threads_init_default() at the start of main. Given that colord is currently using libdbus without threadsafe support, enabling threadsafe support is unlikely to break anything. There is no explicit synchronisation between the dbus-using threads, so deadlocks are unlikely. The colord daemon is run as an unprivileged user, so even in the incredibly unlikely event that this opens a security hole it's a limited threat. [Development release] This code is split out of the colord daemon in the development release; the same fix applies to colord-sane, however, and will be uploaded shortly.
