There are quite a few symbols missing so it's hard to see what's happened. :-(

Could you please run these commands?:
1. debuginfo-install cupsd
2. gdb /usr/sbin/cupd /var/tmp/abrt/ccpp-2013-06-30-09:50:42-1513/coredump
3. then at the '(gdb)' prompt: thread apply all bt

What output do you get from step 3?

GDB output

This is the output of the requested commands with all the needed debuginfo packages installed.

Thanks.

I think the root cause of this is that cupsd is using avahi_threaded_poll (which makes use of D-Bus) while also using D-Bus in its main thread.  I don't think that's allowed.

The fix will be to alter the avahi polling so that it's done in the main thread (i.e. as it was before it was re-implemented upstream).

Crash with cups-1.6.2-15.fc19.x86_64

It happened again with version cups-1.6.2-15.fc19.x86_64

Although abrt claims it was cups-1.6.2-15.fc19.x86_64, it was actually cups-1.6.2-12.fc19.x86_64.  Two things that make me think that:

* /var/log/messages has this:

Jul  3 17:57:16 xenon abrt[14131]: File '/usr/sbin/cupsd' seems to be deleted

i.e. the running binary was actually different than the file on disk.

* the backtrace makes no sense (symbol lookups fail) when running gdb against cups-1.6.2-15.fc19.x86_64, but against cups-1.6.2-12.fc19.x86_64 it makes perfect sense:

and in fact shows the use of avahi_threaded_poll_* functions -- exactly the thing we'd expect to see from that version.

So I think what must have happened was that, on upgrade, the cupsd from the previous version crashed during the restart triggered from the %postun scriptlet.

Humm... maybe I went too quick reporting the crash, I see this opening the coredump. If I understand it right, it seems the running binary was still the 1.6.2-12 version, I got confused when abrt told me it was the newer version, sorry.
