Public bug reported: [Impact]
When a netspeed applet with opened dialogs is destroyed then the dialogs are not properly destroyed. This can result in leaked memory. This bug is fixed in the GNOME Applets release 3.36.4 (in commit https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome- applets/-/commit/d1231ff9b7aa1bab7e9488ffd1f54c50a4f87d6d) NEWS file of corresponding release which fixes this bug https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-applets/-/commit/ea8ec983c8d5e285c341b7a9448e0bf20d43d363 [Test Case] * Add the netspeed applet to a gnome-panel. * Open a dialog such as the preferences or the device details dialog. * Remove the netspeed applet from the gnome-panel. * The resulting dialogs are not properly destroyed and will continue to consume resources (e.g. memory) until the gnome-panel is restarted. [Regression Potential] The regression potential is minimal, the change for the corresponding bug fix only affects the netspeed applet and just adds code to free additional resources which are owned by the netspeed applet. These resources are not used by other applets or the panel itself. ** Affects: gnome-applets (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-applets in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1884375 Title: Gnome-applets 3.36.2: Dialogs in netspeed applet are not properly closed when applet is destroyed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/1884375/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
