Description of problem: Pybliographic, the GTK frontend for pybliographer, crashes when a medline query is launched, after importing an existing bibtex database. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Name : pybliographer Version : 1.2.12 Release : 3.fc11 How reproducible: Exceedingly so. It appears to be after importing any bibtex database. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open pybliographic 2. Open the medline query window (File -> Medline Query) 3. Search for a random topic (e.g 'Cheese') 4. Copy a reference from the list given in the new window to the first window 5. Save the database in the first window 6. Exit pybliographic 7. Open pybliographic 8. Import the database saved in step 5. 9. Open the medline query window (File -> Medline Query) Actual results: Program crashes. Expected results: Program lets you query medline and add more references to the database. Additional info: Running pybligraphic in a console to perform steps 7-9 results in the following being output in the console: $ pybliographic This is Pybliographic 1.2.12 [Python 2.6.0, Gtk 2.16.2, PyGTK 2.14.1] /usr/share/pybliographer/Pyblio/GnomeUI/FileSelector.py:118: GtkWarning: gdk_x11_atom_to_xatom_for_display: assertion `atom != GDK_NONE' failed ret = gtk.FileSelection.run (self) /usr/share/pybliographer/Pyblio/GnomeUI/Utils.py:89: GtkWarning: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated self.xml = gtk.glade.XML (gp, window, domain = "pybliographer") Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_x11_atom_to_xatom_for_display: assertion `atom != GDK_NONE' failed aborting...
Checked. For me it crashes as well. Investigating...
Could you please test with the latest fc11 gtk2 update!? Gtk 2.16.5.
I just tried with: gtk2.x86_64 2.16.5-1.fc11 @updates ...and it "worked" in that the application doesn't crash, but the Gdk-CRITICAL is still there.
Hm, it does crash for me with 2.16.5-1. More exactly, as stated in the original bugreport, usually there is a GtkWarning first and then a Gdk-CRITICAL.
Now I've tested again with the new gtk2 updates in f11. It doesn't crash for me now. gtk2-2.16.6-2 Could you make some tests to check/confirm if the problem solved?!
My apologies, since submitting this bug I've moved on from Fedora and no longer have a Fedora system to test on. So I can't help much with the testing.
Most probably it was a gtk2 issue. So I close this bug.
