RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Thanks for filing this bug report.

Looking at the backtrace, this looks like a C-level assertion failure inside GDK due to an error talking to the X server whilst handling tooltips (frames #0-#6).

Starting at the textual bottom of the backtrace and working back up the file:
Frames #56 - #51: /usr/bin/python starting up, running /usr/share/system-config-printer/applet.py
Frames #50 - #42: appears to be a Python call to gtk.main(), running the GTK main loop
Frames #41 - #38: a timeout has happened, calling back into Python code
Frames #37 - #33: appears to be a call to an instance method of a Monitor instance
Frames #32 - #30: appears to be a call to an instance method of a JobViewer instance
Frames #29 - #20: running various Python code, which appears to be making a nested call into gtk.main()
Frames #19 - #11: appears to be within the nested invocation of gtk.main()
Frames #10 - #8: code related to GTK's implementation of tooltips, leading to:
Frame #7: a call to XTranslateCoordinates
Frames #6 - #0: an XError appears to have resulted from the call to XTranslateCoordinates(), and the process aborts.

[Reassigning component from "python" to "system-config-printer" and editing the "Subject" line to be more descriptive]
