cnar77: I think I know what's going on here. Pan's trying to write a file to your data directory on shutdown, but it's failing to open that file. Most likely reasons: that file system is full or you've changed your data directory to an invalid directory ? I'll fix this for 0.12.0. If you want to appear in the credits, add your real name to this bug report. :)
Created attachment 8267 [details] [review] the same, for gtk1 :)
Created attachment 8268 [details] [review] hum, would be better with no dumb errors :-/
Fixed in CVS HEAD http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan/pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=thread-watch.c&rev1=1.26&rev2=1.27&root=/cvs/gnome
Fixed !!! already ? That was fast. I didn't even get a chance to respond or anything. The name is Corey Rogers (cnar77@yahoo.com). Just signed up a bugzilla account.
I know it's fixed already. but just to add it was trying to write to this file for example ~/.pan/data//profiles.xml where the 2nd slash came from I dunno and that's why I was getting the error and the program crashing. I only just ran pan in a terminal and I noticed it. Will have to user xterms more often when i have problems.
Oh and it was fixed by deleting the ~/.pan folder and recreating it. How this just happened one day in the blue is weird though. Anyway thanks for the quick responce.
I'm preparing for the release of 0.12.0, which is the first stable release to contain these changes. If you'd like to be in the credits, please add a comment giving the name you'd like listed. Thanks!
