Control: tags 923720 + upstream fixed-upstream patch
Hello Everyone,
tried to get some more information from the backtrace.
I could not reproduce it but I think in this case method
AppStream::Pool::load got called with strerror being a null
pointer and for some reason the pool could not be loaded,
therefore line 77 was reached, trying to dereference strerror.
(gdb) list AppStream::Pool::load(QString*)
71
72 bool Pool::load(QString* strerror)
73 {
74 g_autoptr(GError) error = nullptr;
75 bool ret = as_pool_load (d->m_pool, NULL, &error);
76 if (!ret && error) {
77 *strerror = QString::fromUtf8(error->message); <<<<<<<
78 }
79 return ret;
80 }
81
This led to upstream fix in package appstream, available since 0.11.3: [1] [2]
Another fix was done in discover before, available since v5.10.5: [3] [4]
Therefore I assume this just affects Stretch.
Kind regards,
Bernhard
