I made a few cosmetic changes (labels in Calypso).  They were working fine.  
But they were not showing up in Iceberg as changes at some point.  

 

I’d done some earlier tests with Iceberg, and was able to make dummy-method 
changes, and commit to the local GitHub repo.  Everything seemed to work.  At 
some indeterminate point, the changes I made were no longer showing in Iceberg. 
 Further, when I would save, the image would save and quit automatically 
without actually saving.  I’d relaunch, reapply the changes in the change set 
(Epicea), and re-save with the same results. When I tried Save As… instead, I 
got the above crash.

 

Looks like it crashed in a full garbage collection, which is something that is 
done when you are saving.

Its been a while since I've seen one of those have been reported.  Lately 
crashes have been more related to C libraries called by FFI.

 

Yes, that is what I expect.

Not a lot can be done by others until there is a reproducible case. 
You might run a debug-vm that would allow more analysis of a crash.

 

Can you clarify you environment - OS Version, Pharo 32 or 64 bit ?

 

Currently using an i7 laptop with 32 GB, running Windows 10 and Pharo 64-bit.  
I’ve a new tower that I’m looking forward to move everything to, but that’s a 
few days out.

 

I will try to get a specific scenario carefully recorded so that someone can 
try this.

 

 

Bug tracking has moved to https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues

 

That’s good to know.  I put lots of GUI-related stuff in Fogbugz.   Does 
Fogbugz stuff get moved automatically to /pharo/issues, or is Fogbugz being 
ignored now?
