Public bug reported:
OS version: Xubuntu 12.04.1
Effects:
Many programs crash or do not start at all, including the xfce4-terminal.
gksu and xfrun4 will crash as soon as you try to write anything. Oddly enough
leafpad will let you delete but, as soon as you try to write something, it too
crashes.
Steps to reproduce:
1. download a cursor theme
2. open its index.theme and, given that <cursor_theme> is the name of the
theme's folder, add the line: Inherits=<cursor_theme>
3. make it the default x-cursor-theme
4. log out, log back in
Reversal (only works if you can get writing permissions for the index.theme
file):
Simply open the index.theme file again and remove the "Inherits" line (this
can be accomplished with leafpad since you can still delete).
