Yeah, but I would think it should be handled rather than crashing.

[Bug 82373] Re: segfault in gnome-keyboard-properties
bloody hurry caused a bad comment above. My G-C-C *does* have the fix in upstream 398631 installed... So 398631 has not actually fixed the issue (since err is NULL, which would signal no error, but the GConfEntry returned by the call is still NULL). So the real fix would be in gconf_client_get_entry, I guess. -- segfault in gnome-keyboard-properties https://launchpad.net/bugs/82373 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 82373] Re: segfault in gnome-keyboard-properties
OK, I found it. Looking upstream & looking at the gnome CVS for gnome- control-centre/gnome-keyboard-properties, I found a reference to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398631. In there, there is a comment that a similar segv is caused by a missing file -- desktop_gnome_peripherals_keyboard_xkb.schemas. This file is installed by libgnomekbd-common -- which *is* installed in my machine. BUT -- the file is not there. So I reinstalled libgnomekbd-common, and the segv went away. So, for me, this seems to have been fixed upstream by 398631. Why the schema was not installed... is a question I am unable to answer right now. But the bypass is to re-install libgnomekbd-common. -- segfault in gnome-keyboard-properties https://launchpad.net/bugs/82373 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 82373] Re: segfault in gnome-keyboard-properties
OK, I accept it. The only issue I have is that I have never programmed
under GTK, so I am not willing to write a patch on this.
Nevertheless, I can -- and did -- debug the application, and this is
what I see:

So, we segfaulted while testing 'value->type', and it makes sense, since
'value' is NULL.
