This, in turn, can lead gnome-session to forcefully stop the session. [Test Case 1] Described in comment #3. [Test Case 2] * Launch LibreOffice Writer. * Add a table to a document. * Open "Border Style" popup window from the table toolbar. * Wait for the window to appear and then quickly close it. * If Metacity does not crash, repeat the process several times. [Regression Potential] The fix is small (just adding an error trap) and will not cause any regressions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I installed mysql-workbench and gnome-session-flashback on ubuntu 16.04 and whenever I start mysql-workbench metacity or X11 but I think metacity crashes and I am returned to the login screen after a few seconds. I am uncertain if mysql-workbench works in the default unity configuration as after installing gnome-session-flashback I can no longer login to the default unity experience. My mysql-workbench logs where not really helpfull but if you would really like them I could include them. I also tried to compile mysql-workbench from source but the gtk2 version included with ubuntu 16.04 seems to be incompatible due to the deprecation of a data type: GdkPixBuf ubuntu version - 16.04 package - mysql-workbench 6.3.6 amd64 what i expected - open mysql workbench what happened - black screen and returned to login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/1582687/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
