GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 308223
Nautilus crashes first time, subsequent runs are fine
Last modified: 2005-12-30 05:03:20 UTC
Distribution/Version: Arch I can't figure out why, but Nautilus crashes the first time I run it; afterwards, it runs fine. Here's what I get in gdb: gdb nautilus (gdb) run Starting program: /opt/gnome/bin/nautilus (no debugging symbols found) [SNIP] (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread -1226839520 (LWP 31031)] (no debugging symbols found) [SNIP] (no debugging symbols found) [New Thread -1231565904 (LWP 31034)] (no debugging symbols found) [New Thread -1239970896 (LWP 31042)] [New Thread -1240237136 (LWP 31043)] [New Thread -1240503376 (LWP 31044)] Program received signal SIG33, Real-time event 33.

Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so.
Well, here's the bt as mentioned in that Gnome site. It doesn't really look any more detailed though.... (gdb) thread apply all bt
+ Trace 61435
Sebastien, Can you confirm whether this bt was useful? It's been a while since I posted it and I don't really want it to fall through the cracks.
sorry, but it seems that you still use stripped libraries, there is no debug information with this backtrace ...
Thanks for getting back to me. Do you know which libraries I should recompile without the stripping?
Andrew: glib, gtk, gnome-vfs and nautilus
Isn't it great to dredge up old bugs? I'm not sure if it was configuration or the upgrade to 2.12, but I haven't noticed this problem in a while. I'll go ahead and close this for now; rest assured, I'll reopen it if I can reproduce it again in the future. :)
