given what actually changed betweeen -9.fc5.3 and -13.fc5, that is *definitely* not a gaim bug : http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/rpms/gaim/devel/gaim.spec?r1=1.109&r2=1.110 (says nosnilmot in #gaim) Jakub and Ulrich, any idea if any gcc bug happened here? I suspect the problem is with gtk2. I tried installing earlier devel versions of gaim; both gaim-1.5.0-9.fc5.2.x86_64 and gaim-1.5.0-9.fc5.3.x86_64 segfaulted. Since the segfault is happening inside gtk_window_new, I tried an earlier version of gtk2. gaim-1.5.0-13.fc5.x86_64 works fine with gtk2-2.8.9-1.1.x86_64 but segfaults with gtk2-2.8.10-2.x86_64. It does look like the culprit is the new gtk2. It also breaks Java applications if the LookAndFeel is set to GTK (NetBeans 5 RC1 works with GTK2 2.8.9 but not with 2.8.10) Hey desktop folks, testers have indicated that newer versions of gtk2 are causing gaim to segfault. Any idea what's going on? http://people.redhat.com/wtogami/temp/gaim-1.5.0-13.fc5.test.i386.rpm Hey everyone running the latest rawhide, please test this i386-only rebuild of the latest gaim package. Does this behave any better with the latest gtk2 and all other rawhide packages? Please let us know soon. IS this an x86_64 only crash ? It seems like it. I have two systems at identical level, one i686 one x86_64. gaim is working on i386 but instantly segfaulting on x86_64. I just verified downgrading to gtk2-2.8.9-1.1.x86_64.rpm fixes gaim -> marking as dupe of original bug (#178005). That seems to be on ia64 -> it's a gtk2 broke on 64-bit platforms between 2.8.9 and 2.8.10 bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 178005 *** |
