Launching baobab from terminal on a folder exluded from the list to scan, causes a segfault
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
Is there any chance that the fix will be backported to a stable 2.24.x release?
Created attachment 130692 [details] [review] A more complete solution (In reply to comment #1) > This problem has been fixed in the development version. Presently this convers the following scenario: $ baobab /excluded/dir However if the same is done graphically via Analyzer -> Scan Folder, the program crashes as before. Moving the check to baobab_scan_location is a possible solution.
What about displaying a "do you really want to" dialog, and if the user persists we can temporarily remove the location from baobab.excluded_locations scan and show the results and then add it back to the list?
