Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Seahorse, select a keyring
2. Click to change keyring password
3. gnome-shell dialog pops up
4. enter current password
5. enter nothing (empty password fields) and confirm
6. crash gnome-shell

So it is no longer possible to set up a keyring without password.

Probably not worth doing a downstream patch here - there will be a new stable upstream release which includes the fix later today or tomorrow.

if new release will be *before* release - sure, but I don't have knowledge when release will be.

Comment 20 Florian Müllner 2013-11-14 14:31:09 UTC
The clutter maintainer assured me that there'll be a release tomorrow at the latest.

Comment 21 Adam Williamson 2013-12-13 01:45:26 UTC
clutter 1.16.2 was indeed released soon after (11-19, not quite 'tomorrow' but nevermind :>), and an update submitted:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-22280/mutter-3.10.2-3.fc20,clutter-1.16.2-3.fc20

but kparal reported that it caused corruption on his graphics card:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1036257

and as of two days ago (12-10) it was not fully resolved:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1036257#c4

so the update was not sent to stable, and has missed F20 Final release, unfortunately. If I'd noticed I'd have suggested sending out a clutter with just the backported fix :( I'll maintain the commonbugs note for release.

Comment 22 Michael Catanzaro 2013-12-22 02:58:25 UTC
1) Install gpk-application (Packages)
2) Open Software Log (from the app menu)
3) Start attempting to Alt+Tab (or maybe Alt+`) between Software Log and Packages.

Software Log is displayed in GNOME Shell as Packages, and has the same app menu as Packages, and its window appears as a second window under Packages in the Alt+Tab switcher, but it has its own entry in the Alt+Tab switcher with no associated window. That seems to be causing GNOME Shell to crash.

Comment 24 Adam Williamson 2014-01-11 00:11:02 UTC
Kamil, you're the reason that clutter-1.16.2-3 - which was supposed to fix this bug - never went out, because you complained that it broke your graphics. =)

I've had releng nerf the update since then - it contained both clutter and mutter, and a later update was sent out which only contained mutter, so if the clutter/mutter update had ever been pushed stable it would have overridden a newer mutter. Setting this back to ASSIGNED to reflect that.

Comment 25 Adam Williamson 2014-01-11 00:22:04 UTC
So, um, I'm getting a bit confused, here. AFAICT, F20 has the following builds in stable:

clutter-1.16.2-1.fc20 (was shipped in Final - my c#21 was incorrect, 1.16.2-1 waas pulled in as part of a different update prior to Final release)
mutter-3.10.2-6.fc20 ( https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-23948/mutter-3.10.2-6.fc20 )

There is no pending update for either package for F20.

But if Clutter 1.16.2 was supposed to fix this, why are we still getting reports for it? Would the never-pushed-stable 1.16.2-3 do anything to help with this, or not?

Comment 26 Florian Müllner 2014-01-11 17:04:20 UTC
(In reply to Adam Williamson from comment #25)
> But if Clutter 1.16.2 was supposed to fix this, why are we still getting
> reports for it?

The code that produces backtraces like these has not changed - it is a sanity check Clutter is doing, triggering an assertion on failure.

What the version in question did fix was a bug in Clutter itself that caused valid code to fail said sanity check (in particular: wrong size calculations in presence of hidden actors, triggered by the steps in comment #11). But as the assertion is still present, it can still be triggered by other bugs (likely in either gnome-shell or clutter), which is probably the case here. The reproducer in comment #22 is definitively helpful, I will take a look.


> Would the never-pushed-stable 1.16.2-3 do anything to help with this, or not?

No. With the steps from comment #22, I can reproduce on current git master.

Comment 27 Adam Williamson 2014-01-12 06:43:12 UTC
Ah, thanks for the info. That explains it.

Comment 28 Adam Williamson 2014-01-12 06:47:53 UTC
BTW, when you have a case like this where different issues can be detected as dupes by libreport/abrt, you can usually arrange with the abrt folks to come up with a better detection mechanism that will separate the reports, if it's worth the effort.

Comment 29 Robert Hancock 2014-01-18 20:20:14 UTC
Another user experienced a similar problem:

Enabled "Icons on desktop" in gnome-tweak-tool (Advanced Settings)
The Files icon is displayed in the Alt-Tab icon list even though no file window is open. (Before this update, that wasn't occurring.)
If you Alt-Tab to that icon and hit Alt-~ to display the open windows, this crash occurs.

(In reply to Robert Hancock from comment #29)
> Another user experienced a similar problem

Right, both the problem described in comment #22 and this are caused by an application showing up in the alt-tab popup without any windows to switch to. The reason we end up there is different though - see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722434 for the first issue, and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722690 for the second one.

Comment 31 Phil 2014-01-24 13:28:19 UTC
Is there a koji link for the updated package so I might test it?

A temporary work around for users experiencing this issue until the proper fix makes it through QA to the repos:

yum downgrade gnome-shell

This should install the previous 3.10.2.x version.  I would advise avoiding 3.10.3-1.fc20 all together.

(In reply to Phil from comment #31)
> Is there a koji link for the updated package so I might test it?

Sorry for not searching first, it's late.  The x86_64 package here works for me on 2 separate installations that had the same issue.

Comment 33 Adam Williamson 2014-03-08 00:55:24 UTC
Is any incarnation of this still valid with latest F20 shell, clutter and mutter?

(In reply to Adam Williamson from comment #33)
> Is any incarnation of this still valid with latest F20 shell, clutter and

To the best of my knowledge no; the sanity check/assertion is still in clutter and may be triggered by all kind of bugs, but the two identified in this bug have been fixed. So yeah, let's close this ...
