Notes from irc log; (15:01:52) tedg: klattimer, Yeah, so ayan has a small GTK program that creates and destroys menus and causes a leak in GTK... (15:03:37) tedg: I was talking to hughsie a while back and he was saying it depends on the battery firmware how often it updates. (15:03:51) tedg: Which probably explains the variation of folks reporting things on the bug. (15:06:12) tedg: I wonder if there's something of the wrong type so that hashtable isn't getting free'd. (15:06:28) tedg: In theory dbus-glib should do that... but I don't have a huge amount of faith in it. (15:06:52) tedg: klattimer, The last entry in the valgrind log. For properties_copy (15:07:04) tedg: It allocated a hashtable which get's passed to dbus-glib. (15:08:42) tedg: No, I think that serialze_menu item has a leak of that hashtable.... (15:08:47) tedg: Uhg.
So there are gtkmenu leaks, and libdbusmenu-glib leaks - best thing to do is fix libdbusmenu-glib and upstream the result of ayan's tests to a gtkmenu bug. -- memory leak in gnome-power-manager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569273 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
