Description Christian Persch 2015-10-01 09:01:50 UTC 
With glib git master, any gtk+ app crashes at startup:

GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_pointer: assertion 'G_VALUE_HOLDS_POINTER (value)' failed
(gdb) where
[...]

+ Trace 235539

  • #2 g_value_get_pointer
    at gvaluetypes.c line 1166
  • #3 g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__PARAM
  • #0 gtk_settings_notify
    at gtksettings.c line 2014 


This is due to commit 43e8bfca0c687317f96f976586194d26d8e141b4 and 8e362161d9554e8a6c1e82f95bff24fc9fdcf9ef which is wrong for (at least) PARAM types.

Hmm there's some text hidden by the broken traceparser, please expand "Trace 235539" to see it.

Reverted in master.
