This patch has been found to be required due to the inclusion of the other Ubuntu specific patches in gnome-menus.
Testing the vanilla orig tar file together with the Debian patchwork this patch has been found to NOT be required. Testing the vanilla orig tar file together with the Debian patchwork + patch 80_*.patch - this patch is still required. Patch 80 fixes some of the observed panel crashes when uninstalling/installing applications. This patch fixes what appears to be remaining issues. In terms of regression potential I would say zero regression potential. The code at this point is when desktop-entries are being released from memory i.e. memory cleanup. If Unity had ever hit this point because the desktop-entry was neither a directory or .desktop file then Unity would have automatically crashed. Since I haven't seen Unity crashes because of the forced assertion this code will never have been reached by Unity. ** Patch added: "81_unref_check_for_invalid_entries.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-menus/+bug/1631745/+attachment/4798555/+files/81_unref_check_for_invalid_entries.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-menus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631745 Title: hostname-panel crashed with SIGSEGV in g_slice_alloc() Status in budgie-desktop: Fix Released Status in budgie-desktop package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in gnome-menus package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Testing in VirtualBox (xubuntu) Clean install of Release Candidate, updated and reboot.
