Attaching the debdiff with patches to fix bug 1675888, bug 1676840, bug 1690517, bug 1695648 for Zesty.
** Attachment added: "Debdiff for Zesty to fix 1675888, 1676840, 1690517, 1695648" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mate-panel/+bug/1675888/+attachment/5006539/+files/mate-panel-debdiff-zesty ** Description changed: + [Impact] + + Almost all panel applets occasionally crash if the panel is transparent. + Usually it happens on session start. It affects all panels that are on the + screen, e.g. if you have top and bottom panels, then the applets from both + panels would crash. + + The patch attached to this report fixes the issue. + + The fix is already present in Artful and tested by developers and users. + Would be nice to backport it to Zesty as well, as it's really a major + inconvenience for users who prefer to have a transparent panel. + + [Test Case] + + If you see the applets crashes on session start, then the issue is already + reproduced. Otherwise you can try moving transparency slider in the panel + properties very fast back and forth - after some tries it will cause some + applets to crash. It's been confirmed that it's the same crash as happens + on session start, with the same backtrace and the same root cause. + + [Regression Potential] + + None. All that's done is to replace the direct call of cairo function with + the call to GDK's cairo support function. It proved to be the proper way to + do it. + + [Other Info] + + The patch is included into the debdiff attached to this report. + + The debdiff contains patches to fix bug 1675888, bug 1676840, bug 1690517, + bug 1695648. See other reports for the corresponding SRU templates. + + Note that the debdiff attached to bug 1690517 is a separate one for + Artful. + + [Original Description] + crash on testing shortcuts: Ctrl+ Alt +Numpad ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.04 Package: mate-panel 1.18.0-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.10.0-13.15-generic 4.10.1 Uname: Linux 4.10.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.4-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Fri Mar 24 20:13:18 2017 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/mate-panel/notification-area-applet InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-06-28 (268 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160420.1) ProcCmdline: /usr/lib/mate-panel/notification-area-applet ProcEnviron: - SHELL=/bin/bash - XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> - PATH=(custom, no user) - LANGUAGE=ro_RO - LANG=ro_RO.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> + PATH=(custom, no user) + LANGUAGE=ro_RO + LANG=ro_RO.UTF-8 Signal: 5 SourcePackage: mate-panel StacktraceTop: - ??
