Details

After latest updates (possibly, glibc-2.15-3) began occasional crashes of xxkb. It is seamless, so while I can not name the exact conditions to reproduce the bug.

Crach dump (copied from TTY1) attached.

Might need to rebuild for the current glibc version.
This requires a PKGBUILD fix:
- make PROJECTROOT=/usr PIXMAPDIR=/usr/share/$pkgname LOCAL_LIBRARIES='-lXext -lXt -lXpm'
+ make PROJECTROOT=/usr PIXMAPDIR=/usr/share/$pkgname LOCAL_LIBRARIES='-lXext -lXt -lXpm -lX11'
   xxkb.dump (3.5 KiB)
This task depends upon

Works for me. What should I do reproduce it?

As I said, it runs continuously, and die quietly and unobtrusively, it may happen once per day.
(running openbox, tint2, Firefox, Psi+, xterm, LibreOffice)
Now I use already rebuilded package.
If a couple of days will no longer be a single crash - then rebuild solves the problem.

Чтобы воспроизвести проблему, надо запустить его и пользоваться. Долго.
(Из программ openbox, tint2, Firefox, Psi+, xterm, LibreOffice)
Может, через час возьмёт и отвалится, тихо и незаметно, просто в какой-то момент обнаружится отсутствие значка индикатора и исчезновение привязки раскладки к окну.
За несколько дней у меня было три падения xxkb, во второй раз я скопировал дамп из консоли.
Теперь я пересобрал пакет, и пока больше падений не было.
Если в ближайшие дни больше не будет – значит помогло.

Google Translate:
To reproduce the problem, you need to run it and use it. For a long time.
(From the software openbox, tint2, Firefox, Psi +, xterm, LibreOffice)
Maybe an hour and will drop off, quietly, just in a moment found no icon display and disappearance of binding to the layout window.
For several days I had three drop xxkb, the second time I copied the dump from the console.
Now, I rebuilt the package, and while more falls were not.
If in the next few days will not be - then helped.

Does it work for you now?

Sorry, no translation was needed - the same thing I wrote in English.
After rebuilding the package works fine, no more crashes.

The crashes of xxkb-1.11-4 were observed on a machine with an Athlon XP CPU.
But on the other machine, in an identical environment, but with a Pentium IV CPU, the same old build still works fine.

Strangeness. Closing this bug, for now, then?
