** Description changed: + [ Original Description ] + Hi, I'm Gaël Bonithon from Xfce, I'm the maintainer of xfce4-panel. It appears that you updated glib to 2.80 on Ubuntu 24.04, but left xfce4-panel at 4.18.4. However, a patch released in xfce4-panel 4.18.6 is required when using glib 2.80: https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/-/commit/87d0bb94602021921cdb2692837714a24be7623a Without it, xfce4-panel and wrapper-2.0 crash on exit (SIGABRT), with this type of log: GLib-GObject:ERROR:../../../gobject/gtypemodule.c:119:g_type_module_finalize: assertion failed: (module->type_infos == NULL) Bail out! GLib-GObject:ERROR:../../../gobject/gtypemodule.c:119:g_type_module_finalize: assertion failed: (module->type_infos == NULL) See also https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=17446 So please upgrade xfce4-panel to 4.18.6. Thanks! + + [ Impact ] + + * xfce4-panel and wrapper-2.0 crash on exit with glib 2.80. + + * The upstream patch resolves the issue introduced in glib 2.80 from + 2.79: + + Fix memory management of GTypeModules + Finalizing a module containing types and/or interfaces implementations + is no longer possible as of glib 2.79.0. See + https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/3779 + + [ Test Plan ] + + * Start Xubuntu session + + * Issue the command `xfce4-panel --quit` + + * Note the resulting crash + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + * Patch is approved and tested upstream and solely resolves the defined + issue. No additional problems are to be introduced. + + [ Other Info ] + + * While the issue is considered lower priority, it is still a source of + frustration for our users and reduces confidence in Xubuntu. We would + like to move quickly to testing and release.
