Comment 2 Hans de Goede 2011-02-27 12:48:32 UTC

I cloned bug 644292 to this one, because the second backtrace in that bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=461319

Is completely unrelated to the first one. The second bug is crashing deep inside libX11 / libxcb, this is likely related to spicec accessing libX11 from multiplethreads. Note that upstream libX11 + libxcb have fixes espp. targetting multi thread apps calling Xsync, and upstream spicec has patches to add proper
locking to X11 calls as that is needed with the newer version, otherwise it may hang in some cases (as doucmented in the upstream libX11 / libxcb commits).

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2011-02-27 12:58:21 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is in the Production 3 Phase. During the Production 3 Phase, Critical impact Security Advisories (RHSAs) and selected Urgent Priority Bug Fix Advisories (RHBAs) may be released as they become available.
