This problem appears to be related to a section of code where each file to be exported is handled in a separate worker thread. From what I can tell, when the worker thread does something that causes the warning dialog box to pop up (overwriting an existing file for example), this causes the crash.
I don't know enough about the app (or about GTK+ apps in general) to fix the underlying issue right now, but there was an #ifdef around the threaded version of the code and a #else to fallback to its single- thread equivalent. The patch attached is an ugly, horrible workaround that rigs the #ifdef to where the single-thread version of the code is always used. It doesn't fix the underlying issue at all - but at least should allow folks who are being impacted to work around it. ** Patch added: "ugly workaround to use single thread always" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51755611/file_export.patch -- gtkpod crashes with SIGSEGV in gdk_window_set_geometry_hints https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512964 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
