I have successfully tested the package in -proposed. With the updated package, I was able to add and remove users, change parameters, etc. and have not seen the crash. ** Tags added: verification-done ** Tags removed: verification-needed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/534154 Title: system-tools-backends crashed with SIGSEGV in dbus_message_iter_append_basic() -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Any testers of the lucid-proposed package? As this has been in -proposed for a long time already, I'll remove the proposed package soon if there is no feedback.

Accepted system-tools-backends into lucid-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

That one is fixed upstream with 2.9.10, which should be in Lucid soon. ** Changed in: system-tools-backends Status: Fix Committed = Fix Released -- system-tools-backends crashed with SIGSEGV in dbus_message_iter_append_basic() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/534154 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hugh - not 2.9.10, but the system-tools-backends 2.10.0. -- system-tools-backends crashed with SIGSEGV in dbus_message_iter_append_basic() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/534154 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 534154] Re: system-tools-backends crashed with SIGSEGV in dbus_message_iter_append_basic()
The fix was really trivial: when writing the code, I forgot to make a variable used to return an error message as NULL before passing it to the authentication function. Since this is required for the function to fill in the error message, we were getting an invalid pointer: in case of error, we were reading invalid memory an crashing. You can see the one-line fix here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/system-tools-backends-clone/commit/?id=00d6fafc4ee7788e103244bc8159e82373b22b9e This fix will be released upstream with 2.10.0, in about 10 days. Thanks for the feedback. Please continue to test Lucid, and especially the gnome-system-tools! ** Changed in: system-tools-backends (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged ** Also affects: system-tools-backends Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: system-tools-backends Status: New = Fix Committed -- system-tools-backends crashed with SIGSEGV in dbus_message_iter_append_basic() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/534154 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for your report. I think I've found the cause of the problem. Could you install the following package, test it and report if that fixes the bug for you?
