Yes, the link Christopher posted was the original valid report I created before being redirected here. When I first made it the launchpad report title field was already filled and launchpad suggested that it could be the same bug. I had a look and was unsure. The error details were similar but not exactly the same and there was no mention of abiword so I decided to create a new report. Soon after Christopher informed me that it was the same bug so I ditched that report and started hanging out here.
If you read my edited version of the bug description of the report we're on now you will find details on how to trigger it. When I was told to make these edits whilst following the SRU procedure I was somewhat unsure because making this bug report so specific to my problem seemed to narrow it. But I continued anyway as that's what I had been asked to do and cautiously explained myself in the description. I can't say whether it is specific to xfce because I have no machines running other desktop environments to test it on. The reason I mention xfce specifically is that it bundles abiword as default word processor so the bug will affect primarily its users. I guess I could try closing xfce and running abiword from the terminal using a keyboard shortcut I came across once? But my guess is it's not specific to xfce... I hope this all makes sense now? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1210852 Title: gvfsd-http assert failure in g_error_free() Status in GVFS: Fix Released Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Trying to get this backported so attempting to follow the SRU Procedure as outlined here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure [Impact] * An explanation of the effects of the bug on users This bug stops users of Abiword in Xubuntu copy and pasting pictures from Firefox. Maybe other sources too? Text pastes fine. Libreoffice is unaffected. * justification for backporting the fix to the stable release. Copy and pasting pictures is surely a very basic feature of any word processor and Abiword is bundled as the default in Xubuntu. Additionally I have detected this bug on multiple versions of Xubuntu (13.10 64-bit, 13.10 32-bit and a 12.04 ?-bit - 100% of the machines I have tested it on). * In addition, it is helpful, but not required, to include an explanation of how the upload fixes this bug. No idea [Test Case] * detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug * these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes the problem. Simply open Abiword on a Xubuntu machine, find an image from Google images on Firefox and copy and paste by any method into the document. It has on occasion successfully pasted the image although most of the time it seems to fail. I do not know what factors cause fail/success. [Regression Potential] I am unable to comment on this personally.
