Package: icedove
Version: 2.0.0.4.dfsg1-1
Severity: minor
With libglib2.0-0 version 2.13.5-1 and libgtk2.0-0 2.11.4-1, I get the
following on icedove startup:
***MEMORY-WARNING***: icedove-bin[27584]: GSlice: g_thread_init() must be
called before all other GLib functions; memory corruption due to late
invocation of g_thread_init() has been detected; this program is likely to
crash, leak or unexpectedly abort soon...
I captured full debug info at [1]. The short story is: as predicted, memory
corruption did occur. Icedove died immediately when I tried to send an email,
even after moving ~/.mozilla-thunderbird out of the way and creating a new
account.
This problem is notable because icedove 2.0.0.0-4 (and all previous versions of
icedove that I've used) worked fine with my experimental versions of libglib
and libgtk, yet 2.0.0.4 seems not to work with it at all.
I upgraded icedove this evening and this problem instantly arose. After
downgrading to unstable versions of libglib2.0-0 and libgtk2.0-0, the problem
went away, but this definitely seems to be a regression of some sort;
especially so if future unstable versions of libglib and/or libgtk2 have the
same ordering requirement that icedove 2.0.0.4.dfsg1-1 appears to have violated.
