This was a small change in glade/glade_atk.c; applying the patch to the 2.6.0 src.rpm fixes it for me. I'll attach 'glade-infinite-loop.patch'. Created attachment 112762 [details]
Fixes infinite loop bug in startup
I can verifiy that this patch fixes the above problem for me in i386 and x86_64. The component this request has been filed against is not planned for inclusion in the next update. The decision is based on weighting the priority and number of requests for a component as well as the impact on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux user-base: other components are considered having higher priority and the number of changes we intend to include in update cycles is limited. Product Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050324 Firefox/1.0.2 Red Hat/1.0.2-1.4.1.centos4 Description of problem: After building glade2-2.6.0-1.src.rpm on a RHEL-4 machine and installing the produced glade2-2.6.0-1.i386.rpm, running the command "glade-2" produces a blank palette and the program hangs. Same issue if the SRPM is built on an x86_64 machine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glade2-2.6.0-1.src.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpmbuild --rebuild glade2-2.6.0-1.src.rpm Additional info: running an strace when starting produces this continuos loop: open("/home/testuser/.icons/Bluecurve/cursors/xterm", O_RDONLY) = 16 fstat(16, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=5020, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x2a98c3c000 read(16, "Xcur\20\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\3\0\0\0\2\0\375\377\30\0\0\0004\0"..., 4096) = 4096 lseek(16, 0, SEEK_SET) = 0 read(16, "Xcur\20\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\3\0\0\0\2\0\375\377\30\0\0\0004\0"..., 4096) = 4096 close(16) = 0 munmap(0x2a98c3c000, 4096) = 0 I went to the gnome.org site for glade2 and noticed the following line: Fixed bug that could cause an infinite loop on startup. IN: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glade/2.6/glade-2.6.8.news So I downloaded the file: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glade/2.6/glade-2.6.8.tar.bz2 and modified the spec file so the version is: Version: 2.6.8 then rebuilt and installed the rpm ... it seems to work fine with this version of glade2. Obviously, this needs to be tested.
