Package: python-vte
Version: 0.11.13-2
Attached is an example script that should set colors on a VTE Terminal widget to
be all white. It segfaults when run with the python-vte package.
I tracked the problem down to the python/vte.c file, in
_wrap_vte_terminal_set_colors(), line 472 or so:
if (PySequence_Check(py_palette)) {
palette_size = PySequence_Length(py_palette);
palette = g_malloc(sizeof(GdkColor) * palette_size);
for (i = 0; i < palette_size; i++) {
item = PySequence_GetItem(py_palette, i); /* INCREFs */
if (!pyg_boxed_check(item, GDK_TYPE_COLOR)) {
g_free(palette);
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "palette should be a list of
GdkColors");
return NULL;
}
/* Good here */
palette[i] = *((GdkColor*)pyg_boxed_get(py_palette, GdkColor));
/* Never get here -- ^^^^^ segfaults!! */
printf("about to dec\n");
Py_DECREF(item);
printf("decremented successfully\n");
}
}
I think py_palette in this line should be changed to item. I haven't done any
strenuous testing, but this appears to make the program not seg fault.
