Package: wmaker
Version: 0.91.0-7
Followup-For: Bug #279489

Hello,
I have some more info on this issue. I found that I can make it 100%
reproducible opening a particular PDF file[1] using acroread. I was
using this package:

wmaker_0.91.0-7_i386.deb

and it worked fine. After opening acroread with that file and resizing
the windows WMaker started crashing. Now wmaker crash when I try to
resize _any_ window. Note that this behaviour is irreversible,
restarting wmaker, X or the whole PC doesn't cure the problem.

I tried different things:

- remove ~/GNUStep
- purge wmaker package and reinstall
- reinstall X (with all its libraries - crash happened in libX11 - see
  below)

None of them worked. I had to reinstall wmaker 0.80.2-0.4, which works
fine (even with acroread and that file).

gdb says that the crash happend here:

#0  0xb7e5d76b in XTextWidth () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6

I'm unable to get a back trace, since the stack seems to be corrupted. I put
the core dump here:

http://kronoz.altervista.org/core.bz2

core was generated by wmaker 0.91.0-7, while gdb was attached to the
process.

I can reinstall the crashing wmaker and do more tests, just ask.

[1] The file comes for ISO, it's C standard. I don't think that I can
redistribute it...
