Hi Seb. IIRC, I think the bug is really in the dbus library, in that it claims to create an 'error', but instead returns an exceptional value and yet doesn't set error to point to something other than NULL. So, there's probably a bug in dbus.
This patch makes gnome-settings-daemon check that 'error' is actually set to something before trying to use it. It's purely a defensive measure against dbus doing something unexpected. If it happens, we should perhaps make a loud noise also, but we should never crash because of it. -- [apport] gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110147 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
