Public bug reported: First off, apologies there are lots of components this could be from, I don't know which one.
If I click on a link in the Slack snap, nothing happens to open that link. In the background, from what I can tell, a loop of `systemd --user`, calling `xdg-open`, calling `kde-open5` occurs. This keeps going. Each time I click on a link a new loop starts up and my CPU fan starts getting louder :) `xdg-desktop-portal` and `xdg-desktop-portal-kde` are also hanging around but without restarting, unlike the other processes which are new ones each time. I did have a `kde-open5` crash yesterday which is probably related, but at the time I didn't know what had caused it. If I `pkill kde-open5`, then all loops stop running. Strace of `xdg-desktop-portal`, which is using a constant ~6% CPU gives a rapidly repeating version of the below (not useful I bet): poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) read(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 futex(0x7f21dc7a22a8, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 0 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) read(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 futex(0x56187eb3aee0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 futex(0x56187eb3aed0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) read(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) read(3, "\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 futex(0x56187eb3aee0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 futex(0x56187eb3aed0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 futex(0x56187eb3a228, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 futex(0x56187eb3aee0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 futex(0x56187eb3aed0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 futex(0x7f21cc003ba8, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 2, 0) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) read(3, "\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 Strace of `xdg-desktop-portal-kde` is a repeating write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: ReadAll called with parameters:\n", 50) = 50 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: groups: (\"org.kde.kdeglobals.*\")\n", 56) = 56 write(6<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 write(6<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 poll([{fd=5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: Read called with parameters:\n", 47) = 47 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: group: \"org.kde.kdeglobals.General\"\n", 59) = 59 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: key: \"menuFont\"\n", 39) = 39 write(6<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 poll([{fd=5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: Read called with parameters:\n", 47) = 47 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: group: \"org.kde.kdeglobals.General\"\n", 59) = 59 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: key: \"font\"\n", 35) = 35 write(6<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 poll([{fd=5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: Read called with parameters:\n", 47) = 47 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: group: \"org.kde.kdeglobals.WM\"\n", 54) = 54 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: key: \"activeFont\"\n", 41) = 41 write(6<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 poll([{fd=5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: Read called with parameters:\n", 47) = 47 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: group: \"org.kde.kdeglobals.General\"\n", 59) = 59 write(2<UNIX:[127378->128309]>, "xdp-kde-settings: key: \"toolBarFont\"\n", 42) = 42 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.04 Package: xdg-utils 1.1.3-1ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.0.0-8.9-generic 5.0.1 Uname: Linux 5.0.0-8-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu23 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Wed Apr 3 09:54:04 2019 InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-10-22 (162 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 18.10 "Cosmic Cuttlefish" - Release amd64 (20181017.2) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: xdg-utils UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to disco on 2019-03-27 (6 days ago) ** Affects: xdg-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug disco -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1822973 Title: Clicking link in slack snap causes infinite loop of retrying xdg-open To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-utils/+bug/1822973/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
