There are reports of this now in 1.4.0.1; basically the same trace. Is
this still a possibility in the 1.5.x codebase?

Comment 31 Lauris Kaplinski 2002-03-10 23:08:16 UTC 
This is libgnomeui bug. To reproduce, try following code snippet:
 
w = gnome_font_picker_new ();
gtk_widget_show (w);
gnome_font_picker_set_mode (GNOME_FONT_PICKER (w),
                            GNOME_FONT_PICKER_MODE_FONT_INFO);
gnome_font_picker_set_font_name (GNOME_FONT_PICKER (w), "");

Is present in gnome-libs 1.4.1.4

I pestered Owen into reimplementing some broken stuff in there. Does
this look like it would help? (Attaching a diff)

Comment 34 Luis Villa 2002-03-12 08:03:04 UTC 
re:ccing lauris; lauris, could you take a look at kjartan's patch?
Comment 35 Lauris Kaplinski 2002-03-13 19:46:28 UTC 
Gnome 2.0 font picker is immune of this bug, so removed GNOME2
keyword.
Kjartan, I cannot verify your patch, as my gnome-1.4 build
environment is not functional :( and I really am not familiar
enough with internals.

This was commited and relased in the last gnome-libs release. Please
test it and report if it fixes the problem.
