GDB backtrace (8.80 KB, text/plain)

GDB backtrace

This is Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/652373

If I create a scheduled transaction with frequency set to "Once" and start date
equal to today, save, restart GnuCash, and accept the creation of
the transaction, then I get a segfault (in
gnc_sx_instance_model_update_sx_instances(), see attached backtrace).

Other Debian users report similar crashes when trying to disable such a "run
once" transaction, or when editing a transaction scheduled to run a limited
number of times, as long as all scheduled occurences have run.
Comment 1 Sébastien Villemot 2012-03-27 11:40:26 UTC 
Any news on this issue? The crash has been reported by three different Debian users.

I also confirm that it is still present in GnuCash 2.4.10.

Thanks

Actually this bug comes from Glib version 2.30, and was fixed in Glib 2.32.

For the record, here is the commit that fixes the issue:

Reassign version to 2.4.x so that individual 2.4 versions can be retired.
