Isn't it the case that with this setting the dropdown lists simply crash? I got the impression that this is not a meld-specific bug. If so, it's better to look different but work instead of crashing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk2-engines-oxygen in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242801 Title: meld assertion while selecting directory Status in Oxygen-gtk: Won't Fix Status in “gtk2-engines-oxygen” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I installed saucy with version 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 of gtk2-engines-oxygen and meld version 1.8.2 on Kubuntu/KDE. - set GTK2 theme to oxygen-gtk in system settings - Start meld - on start screen (new comparsion) select directory comparison - select in either source or destination directory combo box the entry 'Other...' - crash in the terminal i could see the callstack of the crash: /usr/bin/meld:167: GtkWarning: gtk_tree_model_filter_get_value: assertion 'GTK_TREE_MODEL_FILTER (model)->priv->stamp == iter->stamp' failed gtk.main() /usr/bin/meld:167: Warning: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.38.0/./gobject/gtype.c:4215: type id '0' is invalid gtk.main() /usr/bin/meld:167: Warning: can't peek value table for type '<invalid>' which is not currently referenced gtk.main() Segmentation fault I also tried with version 1.4.0-0ubuntu1 of gtk2-engines-oxygen with the same result. If I select a QtCurve as gtk2 theme the same crash occurs. If i select a different theme (e.g. Clearlooks) i get the file dialog and everything is ok. Today i tested this issue on a raring machine and i was unable to reproduce this issue there.
