Bug#629351: Segfault on startup (Loongson2F mipsel system)

2013-05-30 Thread Xiyue Deng 
Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 3.4.2+git20121218.7c1322-3
Followup-For: Bug #629351

Sorry for the long long delay. It took time to fix the X server issue on my
Yeeloong mipsel box.

It turned out this issue still persists, and the same solution, dropping
"-Wl,-z,defs" from LDFLAGS still fixes the problem. I'm attaching the patch
that modifies debian/rules that also exclude mipsel from add the flag, together
with ia64. 

Long story: after X server started to work, gdm3 would display the "Oh no!
Something has gone wrong" dialog, the same as #687569 [1]. However it was not
cause by graphic driver, and after inspecting :0-greeter.log, it turned out it
was actually gnome-settings-daemon that segfaulted.

As stated above, this bug renders GNOME unusable on mipsel on wheezy. As the
change is trivial, I would like to suggest incorporate the patch on stable
release as well, and include it in the next point release.

Thanks.

The situation is that I can't confirm whether g-s-d 3.0+ is still
affected before I fix the X server of my mipsel box. I'll add more
information once that is done.

If the problem is the same as the one on ia64, I can apply the same
workaround.

I suppose mips is affected too?

Similar problem was reported on ia64 and mipsel, which saw the problem
with -Wl,-z,-defs flag when building gnome-settings-daemon. Bugs were
filed against binutils. Now that 3.0+ was released but my loongson2f
mipsel box has problem starting X recently. I'll add more info once
that problem is fixed.

This bug sounds like an issue in your toolchain, not in g-s-d...  I'm
not sure it deserves grave severity.

It seems upgrading to 3.0 triggers a lot of removal of gnome package.
Is there any recommended steps to upgrade to 3.0 packages?

Thanks. It crashes in the plugin register_type macro, which explains why
it is the case for all plugins.

Does it happen with 3.0 from experimental too? The plugin registration
code was greatly simplified.

Rebuilt gnome-settings-daemon as indicated at [1], and installed
libglib-2.0-dbg and libc6-dbg. Still the first frame is unknown, but
hope that the rest will be helpful.

2011-06-05 Thread manphiz-guest 
Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 2.30.2-3
Severity: grave

The daemon segmentation fault on loading the plugins of
/usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon-2.0/*.so. The log of running
"gnome-settings-daemon --no-daemon --debug" is attached.

Please note that it segfaults on any *.so loading, not just
libxrandr.so, which is verified by disabling each *.so file that causes
the segfault. Also, the system is a Loongson2F based laptop running on
mipsel.
