Description of problem: Recently the transmission application started to either crash or display graphical glitches. If I try to open any dialog (application preferences, torrent details), one of these three things happen at random: 1) dialog is displayed fine 2) application crashes 3) I see a large black rectangle of huge proportions (e.g. 10000x10000 px). If I shrink the black rectangle to a reasonable size, it redraws into a working dialog. It is black in those huge proportions probably because my Intel video card can't render such large windows. When it crashes, I see this in dmesg: > transmission-gt[1948]: segfault at 1 ip 000000322fa14443 sp 00007fff45fb16a8 error 4 in libpango-1.0.so.0.3200.3[322fa00000+49000] Abrt doesn't kick in, so I enabled coredump creation manually and extracted the backtrace. It seems to be a crash in pango: > (gdb) bt > #0 0x000000322fa14443 in pango_font_description_hash () from /lib64/libpango-1.0.so.0 > #1 0x000000322f2094d9 in pango_fc_fontset_key_hash () from

core file available if it helps. I tried to downgrade transmission, xorg-x11-server-Xorg, xorg-x11-drv-intel, but nothing helps. I can't downgrade pango, it's the only version available in F18. But I believe I have used transmission quite a few times some weeks ago and I never saw this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pango-1.32.3-1.fc18.x86_64 transmission-gtk-2.75-1.fc18.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.20.17-1.fc18.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.13.1-1.fc18.x86_64 How reproducible: easily Steps to Reproduce: 1. start transmission 2. if you have some torrent, select it and repeat: open its properties window, close it, open it again, close it, ... 3. alternatively you can do the same with transmission preferences window 4. after a few attempts you should see either a big black rectangle covering the whole screen or program crash
I found the problem, it's this bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691186 I can confirm that transmission doesn't crash with gtk3-3.6.2-1.fc18.x86_64, but does crash with gtk3-3.6.3-1.fc18.x86_64. Reassigning to gtk3.

gtk3-3.6.3-1.fc18 (the broken one) never entered stable repository, therefore it doesn't make sense to propose it as a blocker. Removing blocker nomination. Please put it back if there is another reason for blocker status. Thanks.

(In reply to comment #18) > Just trying to start it. > > backtrace_rating: 4 > Package: evolution-3.6.2-3.fc18 > OS Release: Fedora release 18 (Spherical Cow) updating to the updates-testing gtk3 solved my issue.
I wanted to edit the profile preferences of the Terminal and got a crash. backtrace_rating: 4 Package: gnome-terminal-3.6.1-1.fc18 OS Release: Fedora release 18 (Spherical Cow)
I was using gtk3-3.6.3-1.fc18.x86_64 and that was causing the issue. I upgraded to 3.6.4 and the issue is no more.
For the record - for anyone concerned about F18 release, the bad gtk3, 3.6.3, was never in the stable repo and is not in any of the F18 composes, so this bug does not block release. The bad gtk3 has only ever been in updates-testing and will never make it out, since it's been superseded by 3.6.4. Please don't mark this bug or any of its dupes as release blockers. Thanks!
gtk3-3.6.4-1.fc18 has been pushed to the Fedora 18 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
