Bug description:
1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04
2) apt-cache policy gnome-terminal
gnome-terminal:
Installed: 3.6.2-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 3.6.2-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 3.6.2-0ubuntu1 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
3) What is expected to happen is when one first installs the package
libx11-dev , opens two terminal windows, highlights some text in one, and
executes the following in the other, it does not crash:
gcc -o run run.c -lX11 && ./run
Where run.c is a file containing the following:
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
int main()
{
Display* dpy = XOpenDisplay(0);
Atom selection = XInternAtom(dpy, "PRIMARY", False);
Atom target = XInternAtom(dpy, "STRING", False);
Window table = RootWindow(dpy, 0);
XConvertSelection(dpy, selection, target, None, table, CurrentTime);
XSync(dpy, 0);
return 0;
}
4) What happens instead is it crashes consistently.
