Package: gnucash
Version: 2.2.1-1
Severity: important
I'm not sure of the exact circumstances needed to reproduce this, but
basically the UI becomes unresponsive to input (neither mouse nor
keyboard input is recognized) sometimes. This has occurred a couple of
times, this time with the following points:
- two accounts were open
- unsaved changes had been done
- the window was minimized for a while
This has never happened to me when only the "Accounts" tab was open. Not
sure if the "unsaved changes" or inactivity of the window are required
to trigger this.
The window still keeps redrawing properly, it just does not react to
input in any way. Also, when pressing the close window button ("X") in
KDE, it usually brings up a popup asking whether to forcibly terminate
an unresponsive program, but this does not happen with gnucash -
pressing the close button simply does nothing.
When attaching to the process, gdb gives the following backtrace:

Thanks for your feedback.
I can replicate this using Gnome 2 + Gnucash 2.2.9-10 under Squeeze, and
using Gnome 3 Fallback + GnuCash 1:2.4.8-1 under Sid.
But I get different results if I change the desktop environment:
- with XFCE (in Sid) and GnuCash 1:2.4.8-1, the autosave dialog always
comes back to the foreground when I unminimize GnuCash
- with LXDE, the autosave dialogs does not appear on the current
workspace: it appears on the workspace where GnuCash has been
minimized. I get the same behavior with GNOME/Openbox (this is
logical, since Openbox is the WM in LXDE).
So my understanding is that this is not a bug in GnuCash, but rather an
expected outcome of the (possibly configurable) behavior of the window
manager.
I’m therefore closing this bug, but feel free to reopen if you disagree
with my conclusions.
Best,
