I believe this is actually a bug in the Oxygen GTK engine. Attached is some gdb output I took from a hung thunderbird.
It looks like Oxygen-gtk2 is spawning a new glib main loop when it's running "kde4-config --path config" While writing this exact comment I got the exact same hang in Firefox. ** Attachment added: "gdb output showing the hang" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/963736/+attachment/3648348/+files/tbirdbug.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/963736 Title: thunderbird freezes at random : must be killed and reload To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/963736/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
