Description Tom London 2010-09-22 14:04:37 UTC
Description of problem:
Nautilus is crashing every time I try to open a folder (from Places).

For example, trying to open 'Desktop' produces the following segfault:

Core was generated by `nautilus --no-desktop /home/tbl/Desktop'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

But, '*str' is NULL:

(gdb) print *str
$4 = (gchar *) 0x0
(gdb) 

Appears that neither g_utf8_validate nor fast_validate actually checks if str is NULL.

Not sure something else isn't broken, but does it make sense to change:

	  g_return_if_fail (str == NULL || g_utf8_validate (*str, -1, NULL));
to
	  g_return_if_fail (str == NULL || *str == NULL || g_utf8_validate (*str, -1, NULL));

Comment 4 Tom London 2010-09-27 16:42:42 UTC
Created attachment 449962 [details]
Patch that stops nautilus segfaulting opening up 'root folders'

The attached patch to gtk3 'makes it work for me'.

It adds a '*str == NULL' check to guard the 'fast_validate' functions.

Of course, I have no idea if this is the "right thing"......

Should this be reassigned to gtk3?

Comment 5 Owen Taylor 2010-09-28 22:42:47 UTC
Should be reassigned to ibus; its gtk3 module is returning NULL where it isn't supposed to.

g_utf8_validate() is about whether a *string* is valid, NULL isn't actually a string.

(Uninstalling ibus will work around)

Comment 6 Tom London 2010-09-29 00:14:42 UTC
OK, reassigning to ibus.

I removed:

Transaction Summary
================================================================================
Remove        9 Package(s)

and downgraded gtk3 back to 
Sep 28 16:47:35 Installed: gtk3-2.90.7-2.fc15.x86_64
Sep 28 16:47:40 Installed: gtk3-devel-2.90.7-2.fc15.x86_64

Appears that I no longer get the segfault.

But..... I do seem to be getting other crashes: revelation applet, usr/bin/python /usr/share/system-config-printer/applet.py, and I believe abrt itself.

Guessing these packages "need" ibus (ibus-gtk[23]) ... ?

Comment 7 Tom London 2010-09-29 02:52:24 UTC
Crashes of "other packages" appear to be due to updates to some other packages....

Comment 8 fujiwara 2010-09-30 08:48:31 UTC
Please get the latest ibus-gtk3-1.3.7-8.fc15 in rawhide.
It seems ibus would need a rebuild to work with the latest gtk3.

I could see the problem with f14 ibus-gtk3 but I don't see the problem in rawhide ibus-gtk3.
I'd like to close this bug as not a Bug.


BTW, I created a small program of GtkEntry for this bug because I could not succeed to run rawhide nautilus.

Comment 9 Tom London 2010-09-30 13:16:50 UTC
This crashed for me with ibus-gtk3-1.3.7-5.fc15.x86_64.  (There were other reports of this crash on the lists).

This works for me with ibus-gtk3-1.3.7-8.fc15.x86_64.

Thanks for the 'not a Bug' fix!

Not sure how to close this: NOTABUG or RAWHIDE.

Comment 10 fujiwara 2010-10-01 02:39:32 UTC
When the latest gtk3 will be integrated in f14, we may need to rebuild it in f14 again.
