Description fenkes 2018-04-24 15:08:25 UTC
Description of problem:
The offending program seems to be Lotus Sametime 8.5.2 IFR.

Steps to reproduce (worked two out of two times for me):
  1. Search for a contact using the search box
  2. Right-click the contact and select "Add to contact list..."
  3. In the following dialog, pick a group to add the contact to and hit OK

As soon as I hit OK, the screen freezes with the OK button in the depressed state - the mouse cursor freezes as well.

I'm sure Sametime is doing something weird to GTK here, I've had sporadic desktop freezes in the past too, but never as reproducible as this.

Version-Release number of selected component:
gnome-shell-3.26.2-5.fc27

Comment 13 Ben Cotton 2018-11-27 16:02:53 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life.
On 2018-Nov-30  Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases
that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version' of '27'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 14 Ben Cotton 2018-11-30 21:12:45 UTC
Fedora 27 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-11-30. Fedora 27 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
