Switching to version to F17 since we have a duplicate with the latest gnome-shell packages from F17.

Comment 6 Owen Taylor 2012-04-25 15:01:16 UTC
Thanks for the accurate description of the triggering cause, Bruno. That made it really easy to track down what the bug is! Filed upstream as https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674799

Comment 7 Louis van Dyk 2012-06-18 00:38:24 UTC
gnome-mplayer is open, always on top, but not playing anything. In Gmail, I downloaded to open a pps attachment.  Ooimpress 3.5 started to open.  The screen stayed gray, the HDD was very busy, and eventually the Gnome Shell disappeared and restarted.

Owen, is this reported against the right version on b.g.o?  looks like it's 3.0 there whereas the reports here appear to be 3.2 and 3.4?  just wondering if that's one reason why there's been no comment on the upstream bug.

also i think i'm getting this without any 'app is ready' notifications.

i do seem to get this error pretty consistently by opening any CSV file.  opening CSV files makes one or two preliminary windows appear before the main libreoffice window (asking about text encoding and CSV format details).

Comment 12 Didier 2012-08-09 14:17:19 UTC
Just to add my 2 cents :

Starting LibreOffice crashed my F17 gnome-shell session with the same assert error.

After upgrading the proprietary nvidia video drivers (RPMfusion) to 295.59, the issue was gone.

Comment 13 Václav Jansa 2012-08-20 10:07:21 UTC
Change window focus during starting LibreOffice. Crash after LibreOffice window popup.

Comment 14 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-04 01:42:17 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you 
would still like  to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version  of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 15 Fedora End Of Life 2013-08-01 06:26:06 UTC
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
