I have been reinstalling my RH8.0- followi9gn a crash and wanting to configure my HP 672C printer to the ssyem, I went into command line and asked in root [root@localhost /]# printconf-gui & [1] 6503 [root@localhost /]# (printconf-gui:6505): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointerto `GObject' (printconf-gui:6505): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 972 (g_objct_get): assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (printconf-gui:6505): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointerto `GObject' (printconf-gui:6505): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 972 (g_objct_get): assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
you might want to try and check you're filing bugs against the right component.
Niocve comment from Thomas Vander Stichele (see above), but what is the adequate component? I have no idea.. Yves Bajard
By the way, I see that my bug is qualified as Resolved -Invalid. Not too much help, is it not? I am still stuck with the problem Please reopen the bug and if it is invalid tell me why and what I have to do to make it valid, because the problem is real
Thomas's remark was to draw attention to the fact that you filed the bug agains GStreamer, which has very little relation to printing, and absolutely no relation to printconf-gui. (It didn't help that he wrote "component" when he meant "product".) I'm pretty sure that printconf-gui is a Red-Hat-only package, and not part of GNOME. The error messages are almost certainly a bug in printconf-gui and not a bug in glib (which is just noticing the problems). Therefore, I'm closing the bug, since I'm pretty sure it doesn't belong in the GNOME bug tracking system. You might want to try Red Hat's bug tracking database.
