Description: Updating my workbox this morning made every
single gtk2 dependent application segfault
Additional info: * package version(s) 2.18.3-2 x86_64 * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: For me it was reopen my xfce4 desktop. After loging into openbox, firefox faild, pidgin failed, rox faild etc Recompiling the updated package helped the case for me |
This task depends upon
yeah, I meant to come back to this bug last night. My home box(64bit) worked fine after the upgrade, it was just the box at work which had trouble. There are two things I can imagine happened:
- my package downloaded from the locke mirror was rotten (should have been caught by checksum)
- the ldconfig after the first pacman -Syu screwed up; that's a crapshoot dunno if that would result in segfaults
Anyway, I have the package still in the package cache and will try some playing around also get it to home try it there.
Oh, and since I'm the only one who encountered it, feel free to bring the severity down.
So, from my side that can be closed. I can't reproduce it, even with the very file involved in the first place. Maybe the pacman people have insight if something during an update can trigger such behaviour ....
