Package: claws-mail
Version: 3.2.0-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
When trying to run claws-mail from bash or KDE 4 the program will
load briefly and then disappear. In bash, the following message will
appear after the program has crashed:
/* Begin Message */
The program 'claws-mail' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 5608 error_code 8 request_code 2 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported
asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)
/* End Message */
Other GTK-based programs like Synaptec and or The GIMP run correctly
without issue. From Ubuntu's debugging procedures, I tried to get a
stack trace using the command
> strace -Ff -tt claws-mail 2>&1 | tee strace-claws-mail.log
and, to my surprise, claws-mail ran correctly without let or
hinderance.

I see no crash dump here, just the program exiting with nonzero value.
I guess you had some casual glitch which caused the crash, that wouldn't
be strange at all given that you're using bot unstable and experimental
packages. I'd recommend you to stay away from experimental unless strictly
necessary, because it can introduce quite unstable/untested dependencies.
I'm closing the bug with this mail, feel free to reopen (or open a new one)
if you can reliably reproduce it and have a backtrace we can look at.
regards,
