Bug#1035906: closed by Sandro Tosi (Re: Bug#1035906: reportbug fails to load a couple of Gtk modules)
No. Just no. I am not the writer of reportbug, I am just trying to use it. The error messages come out of reportbug. I don't know why it even uses Gtk since it uses a command line interface. Or maybe it's some kind of dependencies problem with way the package is set up. Regardless, these don't look like error messages I should be seeing coming out reportbug so I reported them. At my end it's a reportbug problem, the internals are for you to sort out at your end. If it turns out to actually be a Gtk problem then you reassign the problem. But closing it and saying "this is not the right venue" is a totally inappropriate response.

Bug#1035910: caja: process gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer uses excessive, >600MiB, of memory
Package: caja Version: 1.24.0-1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: cw...@z46860.e4ward.com Dear Maintainer, After looking through a few directories gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer sucks up a lot of memory. The directories I was looking at are in the co-existing Windows XP SP3 Home Edition installation. I don't know which, or which types of files, could be triggering this behaviour. This is on a "small" machine, an msi U120 notebook/netbook with 1GB memory hardwired (i.e. can't be increased), so, a process using this much memory causes everything to bog down. The memory usage of this process varies over time and getting a screen shot at the maximum usage was impossible. But, 540MiB is still well up there. Since reportbug doesn't allow for attachments I've placed the screen shot at: http://chrisw.freeshell.org/caja/Screenshot%20at%202023-05-10%2014-00-27.png top shows 1GiB of virtual memory for gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer and if all that is in actual use, resident or swap, then it is that much worse. I turned off thumbnails in caja and rebooted and the process and problem were gone. The thumbnails option should be turned off by default and there should be a warning asscociated with this option until this is fixed. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.7 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-22-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_CA:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages caja depends on: ii caja-common 1.24.0-1 ii desktop-file-utils0.26-1 ii gvfs 1.46.2-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.36.0-2 ii libc6 2.31-13+deb11u6 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.16.0-5 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-5 ii libcaja-extension11.24.0-1 ii libexempi82.5.2-1 ii libexif12 0.6.22-3 ii libgail-3-0 3.24.24-4+deb11u3 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-02.40.2-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.66.8-1 ii libglib2.0-bin2.66.8-1 ii libglib2.0-data 2.66.8-1 ii libgtk-3-03.24.24-4+deb11u3 ii libice6 2:1.0.10-1 ii libmate-desktop-2-17 1.24.1-2 ii libnotify40.7.9-3 ii libpango-1.0-01.46.2-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.46.2-3 ii libselinux1 3.1-3 ii libsm62:1.2.3-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.7.2-1 ii libxml2 2.9.10+dfsg-6.7+deb11u4 ii mate-desktop 1.24.1-2 ii shared-mime-info 2.0-1 Versions of packages caja recommends: ii gvfs-backends 1.46.2-1 Versions of packages caja suggests: ii engrampa1.24.1-1 pn gstreamer1.0-tools pn meld -- no debconf information

I got to the part where it asks me to select a text editor, so, I selected vim.tiny, but, now, the text I need to copy and paste here is hidden by the text editor display. And I can't scroll up (Mate Terminal or vim.tiny problem or just the way it is or has to be?).
