Hi,
Just reporting a bug which suddenly appeared during a regular Gentoo
update. Perhaps somebody has seen similar behaviour and can offer some help.
The problem seems to be related to gtk usage in scite (and not to Gentoo):
gdb indicates crash happening in /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0.
After a recent software update (amongst other things glibc was
updated to 2.3.6-r3 from a slightly older version) Gentoo stable version
Scite 1.62 started crashing when switching tabs or opening Help->About.
It had always worked perfectly before.
After this I tried a number of different ways to fetch/build scite:
I took a fresh masked Gentoo scite package 1.68, then downloaded
binary Scite from the Scite site, then downloaded 1.68 source from the
scite site and compiled myself. Then I tried compiling with -O0, but
the behaviour persists: Scite crashes - typically not immediately, but
after some
time of usage. For some versions it crashes immediately when I open
Help->About, but the nonoptimised version compiled with debugging
options survives quite some time of usage before it crashes at some
random point. Ie, compilation options _do_ have an effect, but
lower optimisation does not remove the problem completely.
Running scite (Scite version: 1.68, Scintilla version: 168, source
downloaded
from the scite site) under gdb I see:
