Hi, this bug is also discussed at the german Ubuntu forum and brought to the attention of the upstream programmer of xfburn. It appears as if it was depending on particular installation environment. We can believe that the author tested this use case before release. I myself worked with it on non-standard xfce equipment on Debian 6. The german bug is with Lubuntu 14.04. http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/brasero-3-10-0-schliesst-cd-dvd-nicht-ab/2/ (The thread began about Brasero. But since i do not know how to get the attention of Brasero maintainers, i proposed to hunt down the mentioned bug in xfburn.)
There is some problem indicated by valgrind on the machine of the german user: ==3172== Invalid read of size 4 ==3172== at 0x5217370: ??? (in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0.4000.0) ... ==3172== by 0x4B8A7DD: gtk_object_destroy (in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.23) ==3172== by 0x12BC9B: ??? (in /usr/bin/xfburn) ==3172== by 0x521E728: g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__VOIDv (in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0.4000.0) ==3172== by 0x521CCCD: ??? (in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0.40 ==3172== Address 0x150 is not stack'd, malloc'd or (recently) free'd If Ubuntu could provide an xfburn package with debugging information, then valgrind could probably tell more. An apport crash file of a different run indicates a stack trace without any xfburn function call in it. So i (as bystanding libburn programmer) suspect that the memory management gets damaged by the valgrind catch, and that it stumbles ahead until it finally crashes. It might still be some way to go after we learn about the xfburn parameters in the valgrind report. It is unclear whether xfburn or the desktop libraries are to blame. Very helpful would be a valgrind run of xfburn on some other Ubuntu desktop, in order to see whether similar memory access errors are detected. (Would help even without debugging-ready xfburn.) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind Have a nice day :) Thomas -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1317125 Title: Xfburn crashes when trying to add files to data composition on Lubuntu 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfburn/+bug/1317125/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
