upgrade from 0.13 to 0.13.1, pan crashes afterwards
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
after apt-get upgrade of pan from 0.13 to 0.13.1, pan no longer starts, and just crashes with the following messages: $ pan (pan:709): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GObject' (pan:709): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 1395 (g_object_set_data_full): assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (pan:709): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GtkWidget' (pan:709): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GObject' (pan:709): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 1370 (g_object_get_data): assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (pan:709): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GtkCheckMenuItem' Segmentation fault
Created attachment 12024 [details] backtrace of crashing program
problem was an underscore ('_') in the ~/.pan/data/filters.xml file I had a group named 'dr_who'. when the name was changed to 'drwho', pan started normally.
