So, as best as we can tell, this is caused by an upgrade to Qt. Specifically, anything that uses QDBus is falling over. We are seeing similar problems with unity-scope-click here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtbase-opensource- src/+bug/1618590 Basically, the code works with Qt 5.5, and doesn't with Qt 5.6. The ftbs for thumbnailer here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thumbnailer/2.4+16.10.20160825-0ubuntu1 shows that the tests failed only on yakkety arm64 and ppc64el. That's because that silo was built before Qt 5.6 was added to the Xenial overlay. If I were to build in a silo now, I expect I'd see the same failures on both xenial and yakkety. Not sure what we can do to help here. The problem isn't in the thumbnailer code, but somewhere in QDBus, by the looks of things. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1613561 Title: [MIR] thumbnailer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thumbnailer/+bug/1613561/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
