Description Jaroslav Škarvada 2016-03-31 09:44:53 UTC
Description of problem:
Recently compiz started to segfault quite often. While it was quite stable (no hang during days/weeks of usage), now it segfaults few times per day, usually with the following backtrace:

#0  0x00007ff425049c46 in theme_get_style () at /lib64/libmarco-private.so.0
#1  0x00007ff42505057b in meta_theme_get_frame_borders ()
    at /lib64/libmarco-private.so.0
#2  0x000055e04437f124 in meta_update_border_extents (text_height=15)
    at gtk-window-decorator.c:6210
#3  0x000055e04437ccf7 in main (screen=<optimized out>)
    at gtk-window-decorator.c:7262
#4  0x000055e04437ccf7 in main (argc=2, argv=0x7ffc32a37328)
    at gtk-window-decorator.c:7488

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
compiz-0.8.12.2-1.fc23

How reproducible:
Often

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start/stop applications, open/close windows, especially seamonkey under xfce

Actual results:
Segfaults quite often

Expected results:
No segfaults

Additional info:
I tried just to rebuild compiz and it seems that the problem is gone. I am running it for few days now without hang, but it may be only consequence, and I am keeping testing.

Oh, you mean this version from update-testing is broken ? https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-4361574184
And a rebuild fixed the issue?

Oh sorry, I think the affected version was:
compiz-0.8.12-1.fc23

I am installing the version from testing (compiz-0.8.12.2-1.fc23) now and I will give it a test for few days. If OK, I will close this. Sorry for bothering you.

Comment 4 Jaroslav Škarvada 2016-04-04 16:23:46 UTC
I have been testing it for few days. It hung only once for me and it seems the hang wasn't related to this problem (different backtrace).
