You have been subscribed to a public bug: Since upgrading to Ubuntu 15.10 from Ubuntu 15.04, the various GUI applications that I run, including Netbeans and Minecraft have been suffering from dead/waitlocks which prevent them from operating properly. Since I have reproduced this issue these two completely different codebases, I am moving the bug further upstream.
The original Netbeans bug report can be viewed here: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=256124 Essentially, during routine interaction and calling of various AWT methods, somewhere between 8u45 (15.04) and 8u66 (15.10), something broke causing the application to hang intermittently when these methods are called. Some sample jstack traces are attached, the issue should be fairly obvious to spot. ** Affects: josm Importance: Critical Status: Unknown ** Affects: java-atk-wrapper (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Fix Released ** Affects: java-atk-wrapper (Debian) Importance: Unknown Status: Fix Released -- Java 1.8.0_66 is extremely deadlock prone regarding AWT/GTK interaction https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510009 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to java-atk-wrapper in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
