You have been subscribed to a public bug: When using the gi.repository bindings on Utopic a segfault occurs if an expected environment variable isn't set.
On Utopic machines we have a debian/rules build step fail due to a segfault that happens when the expected environment variables are not available. In Trusty this only resulted in a warning (error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment.) To reproduce: $ env -i python3 -c "from gi.repository import Gdk" On my Utopic machine this causes a segfault. ** Affects: pygobject (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- In Utopic importing Gdk requires $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR or $DISPLAY https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1339506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygobject in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
