Orca crashes when switching between different apps (e.g. terminal
windows) while the system is busy.
This behaviour is reproducible on my system:
- Open two gnome-terminal windows.
- In the first, run "git gc --aggressive --prune" inside the cpython
repository to make the system busy.
- Wait 20 seconds until git starts compressing stuff.
- In the second window, run "orca --debug".
- Wait 3 seconds
- Press Alt+^ (once or twice) to switch back and forth between the two
windows.
What do you mean by "^"? in keyboard shortcut terminology it is ctrl. Is
it the same behavior with alt+tab? Are you able to reproduce the same
bug with the Mate desktop and mate-terminal? Is it the same behavior
with two tabs instead of two windows?
Orca now crashes with a segmentation fault. I have a 44k orca debug
file, if that helps.
Could you provide us the full file? Could you upload it on a pastebin
service?
Best regards.
