This is not a bug in glib. UploadBlacklist() loops through a list of strings with
for (auto item : blacklist_) // do something with item.c_str() which makes a copy of each string in every iteration. This means that item.c_str() is not valid anymore after the loop finishes. g_settings_set_strv() then rightly complains about invalid utf8 from whatever is lying around at those memory addresses then. The attached branch fixes this by using a const reference in the loop. ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => In Progress ** Changed in: glib2.0 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium => High ** Branch linked: lp:~larsu/unity/lp1495173 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1495173 Title: compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in g_bit_lock() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/1495173/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
