GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 688640
Crash in _st_theme_resolve_url
Last modified: 2012-11-28 12:17:32 UTC
This morning I updated to Shell master (5eae1851a1db9a7e52bdc0d6d6eec7baf36008a4) and since experience this crash at least one or 2 time each hour. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007f2c7b9003f9 in _st_theme_resolve_url (theme=0x0, base_stylesheet=0x3b17550, url=0x3b88e60 "running-indicator.svg") at st/st-theme.c:1057 1057 base_filename = g_hash_table_lookup (theme->filenames_by_stylesheet, base_stylesheet);

Inferior 1 [process 2429] will be detached. Quit anyway? (y or n) Detaching from program: /home/cassidy/usr/bin/gnome-shell, process 2429
It seems to be introduced by the 3 committed patches proposed in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687465
I got this crash despite reverting those commits. Although it seems to be harder to trigger it.
Raising the importance as the Shell is barely usable atm. I get this crash at least 20 times per day.
Can you try the patch in bug #689029 ? It shouldn't do anything, but according to Giovanni, it does something.
I had the crash many times each day. For me this is a duplicate of 689029 as the latest patch in bug 689029 fixes the issue, as st_theme_node_dispose was called and was clearing node->theme
Yeah, it seems fixed now. Thanks! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 689029 ***
