I can confirm this problem on Fedora-core-5 x86_64. Start xchat and it immediatly segfaults. I see the same issue when xchat starts up, but only when I have transparent backgrounds enabled. Also, clicking on any menu item causes it to crash. I've also locked X11 up by using it under gdb (had to ssh in and kill the process). Try moving /.xchat* to a save directory and starting it. The error xchat gets from the X server is this: The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'. (Details: serial 282 error_code 10 request_code 147 minor_code 1) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) Seeing similar things here. Also noted that if xchat is running and I hit the right mouse button anywhere over it, it explodes. I tried recompiling another version and it does the same, so possibly something with one of the libraries it's using. I have a core file if anyone's interested. Jes ACK. I see this bug as well. Given that this app randomly segfaults on startup, and always segfaults when right mouse button is clicked, I have bumped up the priority and severity both to High. BTW, can everyone re-test after running "yum upgrade"? OK, I still see the bug, even after 'yum upgrade'. Pete Zaitcev recommended that I remove everything in /usr/lib[64]/xchat/plugins. I did so, and it doesn't appear to crash anymore. Once restarted xchat once, though. We'll see if this lasts...

I narrowed my crash down to Skip Server List on Startup, but my xchat will start if I use the no plugins -- xchat -n The bug seems to be located in dbus.so plugin. Everything seems to be ok after removing it from xchat's plugin directory. *** Bug 186302 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 173000 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 190164 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 190888 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This issue has been fixed in XChat 2.6.1 according to: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100239&aid=1441105&group_id=239 Fedora Core 5 is no longer supported. Fedora Core 6 ships XChat 2.6.6, Fedora 7 is currently at 2.8.2 (2.8.4 in testing). Therefore I believe this bug not to apply to any currently supported version of Fedora anymore. |
