The commit message certainly leaves a lot to be desired. On the one hand, the commit is definitely fixing a bug in the reference tracking of the info struct, and it avoids storing pointers to the stack which are almost immediately invalidated. On the other hand, while I would expect either of those bugs to cause crashes, I don't see how either of those bugs could affect whether or not there's an extra reference to the GtkTreeModelSort - causing the crash that Olivier describes - but that may just be because of my weak understanding of the whole GtkTree* set of classes.
I'm personally not willing to sponsor this into the archive proper without a better sense of whether or not it will fix the bug at hand. Olivier: Do you have a concise set of instructions on how to reproduce the bug using Bluefish? For the time being, I'm going to upload the patch to my PPA (https://launchpad.net/~broder/+archive/ubuntu-tests). If somebody can show me some evidence that this particular patch fixes this particular bug, I'd be happy to upload the change. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926889 Title: Ubuntu gtk leaks references in GtkTreeView / GtTreeModelSort which cause segfault in bluefish To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/926889/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
