[Desktop-packages] [Bug 580735] Re: Clock Applet crashes for no reason
Yes, this bug is now affecting me too. 10.04 fully up-to-date on 18th July 2013, kernel ver 2.6.32-49. The problem is not really a crash, but a hang that sometimes recovers. I managed to grab a gdb trace when it hung, but don't have debug symbols for most things. Hope this helps! ** Attachment added: gdb backtrace according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace; https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/580735/+attachment/3743125/+files/gdb-clock-applet.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/580735 Title: Clock Applet crashes for no reason Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: At random times of the day, the clock-applet will stop working.

This bug is 100% reproducible. I am using Lucid Lynx. I have attached my crash file. I enabled apport, but it refuses to upload the crash: The problem cannot be reported: The program crashed on an assertion failure, but the message could not be retrieved. Apport does not support reporting these crashes. Why are assertions enabled in production code? And if you choose to enable them, the apport bug reporter should be able to handle them like any other crash. ** Attachment added: _usr_lib_gnome-panel_clock-applet.1002.crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/580735/+attachment/2399536/+files/_usr_lib_gnome-panel_clock-applet.1002.crash -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/580735 Title: Clock Applet crashes for no reason Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: At random times of the day, the clock-applet will stop working.
