Forgot to specify processor is AMD 64Bit.
Comment 2 Daniel Landers 2014-06-28 09:24:31 UTC
Had a similar bug dealing with memory.  I do not know whether this is related to Jerry's report.  Since I can't figure out how to add a new bug (first time), I'll append this here.

On Trusty in 32 bit VM, blue fish showed a "too large allocation" error.  It is detailed below:

dan@ubuntu:~/.bluefish$ /usr/bin/bluefish
error reading list 1 Error opening file: No such file or directory

** (bluefish:14092): WARNING **: no configfile rcfile-2.0, try to convert config files from older versions

config file migration error 1:Error opening file: No such file or directoryerror reading list 1 Error opening file: No such file or directory

(bluefish:14092): GLib-ERROR **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.40.0/./glib/gmem.c:103: failed to allocate 4135696970 bytes
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

Finally tracked it down to the following line in .bluefish/session-2.0

recent_dirs: file:///

Removing this line, bluefish would load without issue.
Comment 3 Olivier Sessink 2014-06-29 10:21:09 UTC
this last bug has been fixed in 2.2.6, unfortunately Ubuntu has not updated it's bluefish version, so many users now are stuck with a bluefish version that does not start anymore.

The bug is also reported in the ubuntu bug tracking system, please report this to ubuntu, I hope they will include the fix in 14.04...

Hi, if this ticket is still valid in a recent version of Bluefish, then please report this under https://sourceforge.net/p/bluefish/tickets/ as GNOME Bugzilla is not used anymore by the Bluefish developers - thanks a lot!
