Bug#507509: subtitleeditor: crashes when opening any subtitle file
Hi, I've found what was causing the problem. KDE 4 exports the variable MALLOC_CHECK_=2 when it starts. According to the glibc docs [1], this variable enables heap corruption checking and with the value 2, it aborts when such a corruption is detected. Setting this variable to 1 before opening subtitleeditor makes it work and outputs this to the console: *** glibc detected *** subtitleeditor: free(): invalid pointer: 0x00cc8e80 *** Setting the value to 0 it works without any further problems. I hope that the next version will not have this heap corruption, so that KDE4 users can run subtitleeditor without having to export MALLOC_CHECK_=0 before starting it...

Hi George. I'm packaging the latest version 0.30. I hope this version will fix your problem. Please, be patient.

Any ideas where is that? ~/.recently-used*, keep your current copy before deleting so we can try to debug the problem further (perhaps it's a crash on missing files being on the r-u list) I tried moving those files away, but it didn't help. I discovered though a very odd thing. If subtitleeditor is running in my kde 4.2 (beta) session, it crashes. If it is not, it doesn't crash. Something like that: Non-crashing procedure: - Login to kde 4.2 as user1 - Start subtitleeditor as another user: $ ssh -Y [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ subtitleeditor - Open a file - opens fine! Crashing procedure: - Login to kde 4.2 as *either* user1 or user2 - Start subtitleeditor - Open a file - crash! In all cases I tried with a clean ~/.recent* This is very strange and I can't understand what might cause it. I am not using the gtk-qt theme engine for gtk and as far as I can tell, subtitleeditor doesn't dlopen() any qt/kde library. Any ideas? PS: I think the severity should be lowered now. Subtitleeditor works fine with kde 4.1 and older and kde 4.2 is unreleased (both upstream and in debian), so that's definitely not an rc bug :) Regards, George -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

If subtitleeditor is running in my kde 4.2 (beta) session, it crashes. If it is not, it doesn't crash. Something like that: Honestly, no idea, perhaps KDE 4.2 is breaking the recently-used stuff or something from the X env. The test case for you should be: log into GNOME (the default desktop) with the problematic user, open subtitle editor, check if it crashes. Also, if I'm right this subtitleeditor version is a bit old, try with a newer one like 0.30. In the process perhaps you want to confirm if the tarball release for the version you have *now* from *debian packages* crashes. greetings -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
