[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
I'm sorry, but I didn't encounter this problem again on my system. My personal opinion as a developer is that changing bad code for good code is a good idea, and even if the original problem is not reproduceable and even if the patch is not being tested, that fix still makes sense and should go in - preventing SIGSEGV should be no. 1 priority of developers. Here's the GNOME official documentation of g_str_equal() (the call being replaced by the patch): ---8--- Note that this function is primarily meant as a hash table comparison function. For a general-purpose, NULL-safe string comparison function, see g_strcmp0(). ---8--- Which as I read it means: don't ever use g_str_equal() as a general string comparison method. IMHO no testing feedback should be required to apply this patch, because it makes sense the original code is bad. -- evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359658 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
Hello there, In Ubuntu 904x86_64, Evolution just crashed. Nothing unusual happened before the crash. The process was the following: 1- Turn on Computer. 2- Start Evolution and Empathy. 3- Check, write and send some email in Evolution. 4- Launch Xsane in another Workspace. 5- Before pressing the Preview in Xsane, the crash came out. Other things happening in Evolution are: 1- It keeps Folders in the IN Folder marked as has emails not read when it has none until evolution restarts. 2- Every time the app starts, checking contact list and selecting 1 contact from the list makes the contact list scroll up and down from begining to end of list before showing the contact information on the Preview Pane. 3- If the Preview Pane is not shown, the contact list just does de scroll up and down for several times and then stops.

@mvandemar: thank you for your feedback. Indeed, bug 424099 seems to be this one -- which means the fix I cherry-picked did not do the trick. I will have to go back to it. :-( Also, did the failure produce a crash (i.e., was apport triggered)? If so, I would like you to open a new bug via apport, and report here the bug #.

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
Bug 424099 contains a backtrace that I submitted via apport. I can try and force another crash and see if it comes up again, but I think I quit seeing the apport window for this crash a while ago. Is it possible that it got flagged as already submitted on my machine, or that I inadvertently told it not to display the window anymore, and if so, how can I clear that? Also, is there a way to show a more complete report of what is going on at the time of the crash? If the last apport didn't show it, I am not sure what a new one would have that would be differently.

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
bug 424099 has the crash *before* applying my proposed e-i fix, so it will not help me here. I need the crash with my fix in place, so that I can follow the backtrace. I checked the build logs, and the fix is indeed being applied. One thing you can do: please verify if under /var/crash you have *any* files matching the pattern '*evolution-indicator*'. If you do: 1. please remove these files; 2. run 'sudo force_start=1 /etc/init.d/apport restart' to enable apport crash triggering on Jaunty; 3. repeat the error. Apport should trigger, and offer to report the bug. Please do so, and give me the bug number. Additionally, if you want to try local debugging: the easiest way would be, after the crash (and after submitting the new bug), to run 'sudo apport-retrace -g /var/crash/whatever is the crash file name'. This will open GDB, and you can then execute: bt full and thread apply all bt full and give me the output.

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
And now, of course, I cannot replicate the crash. I am starting to think that I may have had Evolution running when I did the update, failed to restart before testing, and therefore the process running when it crashed was still the pre-patch one. I will continue to test over the next couple of days, but as I said before it was not difficult to get it to bomb before at all. -- evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359658 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree that the next release always needs to be solid too, but the reality is that the next release is always full of shiny new with it's own set of bugs, so the user only ever has the choice of trading in old bugs for new ones. There's never an answer to the user that just wants something that's stable and will receive bug fixes without getting a whole raft of new bugs. I guess ultimately, if an organization doesn't have enough manpower to maintain the current release and develop the next release, then the organization's goals are too lofty for the resources the organization has to achieve them. Concerning the no bug fixes comment try to compare the number of updates you get in both system you will see that you probably get as many bug fixed, microsoft doesn't fix any single issue in their updates either Yeah. Ultimately, I do believe Windows is just as bad as the linux desktop and would not trade the transparency of linux for the blackbox of Windows. Some days though, it's very frustrating to be a linux desktop user. Evolution is a pig that doesn't scale and plain just doesn't work (vfolders are still broken). Daily, Firefox 3.5 starts out at a few hundred MB of memory and by the end of the day (or three) it's consuming 2-3G of memory. And that's just the most visible apps/bugs.

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
Ok, this is very frustrating. I reported this identical behavior here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/424099 Apport retracing service reported the following: This crash has the same stack trace characteristics as bug #359658. However, the latter was already fixed in an earlier package version than the one in this report. This might be a regression or because the problem is in a dependent package. So, does the phrase already fixed in an earlier package version mean something different on Launchpad than it would pretty much anywhere else? What am I missing here? Because a few days later it was marked as a duplicate of this bug. Is it the same bug, and was simply never fixed? Was the info about it being fixed simply wrong? Also, to add to the symptoms, I have definitely determined over the past month that, in my case anyways, Evolution *only* crashes when a) vlc is running, and b) a new email comes in. I tried turning off the notifier applet to see if that helped, but it still crashes randomly under those circumstances. It is usually within 30-45 minutes that it crashes, although of course that is dependent on whether or not I actually get an email in that timeframe. Sometimes apport generates a report on the crash, sometimes not. Can anyone else confirm that they are experiencing the same symptoms? Or can anyone else say that they definitely do not have vlc and yet still get this issue? I am available to help test, if someone wants to give me a scenario to set up, if it will help. -- evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359658 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Unless... you *did* apply Ted's fix, and it still fails... in this case I really need a new bug, with a new stacktrace, so that we can follow the code and see if it is still a special case of this one, or a brand new issue. -- evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359658 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
Bug 381144 isn't solved by this issue. A month ago Evolution suddenly didn't want to start anymore. Nothing displayed. dmesg shows evolution[8484]: segfault at 0 ip 7f6a831a5092 sp 7fff97d1bf98 error 4 in libc-2.9.so[7f6a83121000+168000]. This is still true after the fix for this bug is applied. I had tried reinstalling libc and evolution. Without success. evolution still segfaults. I haven't had local access to my e-mails for over one month now. Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04.

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
nice, finally it works like expected. btw, why is there no notification-history about the last notifications? Further: clicking on not-hist should start some action. At the moment notifications are totally useless if you don't watch the screen all the time. And the number of new mails in evo inbox aren't shown in the not-applet. Firefoxs old notification is really annoying among this new one. Updates should be shown as well that way. -- evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359658 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
The patch looks weird to me: -if (g_str_equal (res_name, evolution)) +if (g_strcmp0 (res_name, evolution)) g_str_equal() returns TRUE for identical strings, while g_strcmp0() returns 0 for identical strings, which is considered as false. I don't see anywhere in the bug trail the intent to negate the condition. ** Changed in: evolution-indicator (Ubuntu Jaunty) Status: Fix Committed = Incomplete -- evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359658 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 359658] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp()
One of the reasons that you might not be getting notifications of new mails is that the notifications aren't sent if any Evolution window is in focus. So, you need to make sure you're working in another window when looking. -- evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359658 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

hi I was able to gather some new information: Evolution only thinks it is on top, if inbox is currently selected. And it doesn't matter if evo is on another workspace or minimised.
