- current seamonkey versions (current + older nightly builds, current beta built from source tarball) have the same problem and die with exactly the same output. - seamonkey doesn't need to be started on a remote system. This all happens directly on my i386 rawhide host (no ssh, no x11-forwarding). At least here it also breaks every gnome app Had to $ gconftool-2 -t bool -s /desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility false because gnome-at-properties wasn't working either. Same symptoms here. When I try to stop the service in gnome-at-properties, it
runs the command /usr/bin/orca --stop. On stdout I get:
/usr/bin/orca: line 88: 13048 Killed /usr/bin/python -c "import
orca.orca; orca.orca.main()" "$ARGS"
But then gnome-at-properties also quickly spawns a gnome-terminal with this,
then closes the terminal:
$ /bin/bash /usr/bin/orca --stop
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/orca/orca.py", line 1271, in main
shutdown()
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/orca/orca.py", line 1082, in shutdown
registry.stop()
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/orca/atspi.py", line 189, in stop
bonobo.main_quit()
RuntimeError: not running a bonobo main loop
Not sure if this is relevant.
For seamonkey: Downgrading to at-spi-1.7.11-2.fc6.i386.rpm fixes the problem at least partly. The problem with seamonkey is now that it eats all memory after several hours until the oom-killer takes action. but I think this is another story. The latest version of at-spi is effecting a host of problems where some applications crash and launch bug-buddy on exit. There is a patch in the upstream bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=364839 that has a patch from the developer that is supposed to correct the error. I'm attaching a dump from bug buddy for an instance where assistive Tecnology preferences crashed on exit. Created attachment 145306 [details]
crash related to problem with at-spi
Downgrading at-spi to the FC6 released version allows
system/preferences/keyboad to close successfully. The lvm manager launches bug
buddy on exit also with the latest at-spi installed. I just tried the
application and the Logical Volume manager no longer crashed.
Read the upstream bug report for instances where many programs are effected
badly before the patch is applied.
Leaving bug report thast is still marked as new. This bug was resolved upstream Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again. This bug has been in NEEDINFO for more than 30 days since feedback was first requested. As a result we are closing it. If you can reproduce this bug in the future against a maintained Fedora version please feel free to reopen it against that version.

Description of problem: Running thunderbird on a remote system over ssh with x-display remoted to the local system, ceased to work after today's at-spi update. Both systems are i386 updated to today's Rawhide. Downgrading to at-spi-1.7.12-1.fc7 on the remote system only, fixes the problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): at-spi-1.7.13-1.fc7 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. (on terminal connected to remote system by ssh) thunderbird -debug (without -debug or other switch it just fails silently) 2. 3. Actual results: ellson@ellson:~> thunderbird -debug Warning: unrecognized command line flag -debug ** (Gecko:2676): CRITICAL **: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup. ** (Gecko:2676): WARNING **: IOR not set. ** ERROR **: Could not locate registry aborting... /usr/lib/thunderbird-1.5.0.7/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 2676 Aborted "$prog" ${1+"$@"} Expected results: normal thunderbird session Additional info:
