Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libgtk2.0-0
I received some updates tonight for feisty. One of which was libc6-i686
as well as just the libc6 package. I was trying to edit some files in
mousepad and noticed when I clicked the Open option from the file menu
it froze mousepad, I restarted X and tried again, same issue. I fired
up gedit and got the same problem. I was running both as root.
However if i ran gedit as a normal user it worked fine. When i tried
running mousepad as a normal user I got a segfault, so I decided to
debug mousepad with gdb. This is the results:
$ gdb mousepad

0xb7aacd5f in gdk_drawable_get_screen () from /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
As you can see it refers to the file /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
dpkg says these files are part of libgtk2.0-0
$ dpkg --search libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
libgtk2.0-0: /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0.1000.7
libgtk2.0-0: /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
Hopefully this is enough information for anyone to regenerate the issue and
confirm it is a major bug.
thanks
