Description Matěj Cepl 2015-07-04 23:36:11 UTC

Created attachment 1046091 [details]
partial traceback

Description of problem:
There doesn't seem to be a good way how to reproduce this. When enabling joinlines plugin, gedit quite often suddenly crashes (without any actual use of the Join Lines method).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gedit-plugins-3.14.1-2.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
quite often (given I don't know how to reproduce it is hard to say more)

Core dump is attached to another bug as attachment 1046089 [details] and partial traceback (see bug 1239240 for more information, why just partial) is attached.

perhaps patch resolving the issue

This patch has been suggested in the upstream bug, but it needs more testing before I can say it is the solution.

upsted version of the patch

I was using a class method outside of the class.

Comment 9 Ray Strode [halfline] 2016-04-12 18:48:42 UTC

so actually it looks like I built this into 7.2 and forgot to update the bug.

Comment 10 Ray Strode [halfline] 2016-04-12 19:17:49 UTC

Oh, reopening. Some fixes related to this bug went into 7.2, but some additional fixes need to go in 7.3 (but they're already built), so moving back to MODIFIED.

Comment 12 Martin Simon 2016-07-27 12:55:03 UTC

I've used gedit-3.14.3-17.el7.x86_64 quiet lot with the mentioned joinlines plugin enabled and unicode characters in it and never mentioned this crash. Due the "quite often" in description and no better reproducer, I suppose the bug is fixed.

Matej, could you please confirm? Otherwise, reopen this report, please. Thank you.

Yes, with gedit-plugins-3.14.1-5.el7.x86_64 (and specifically gedit-plugin-joinlines-3.14.1-5.el7.x86_64) and gedit-3.14.3-18.el7.x86_64, the crash is gone.
