[Bug 1853707] Re: Whole system stopped responding because of single program's fault - no way out, had to force power off

 

OK, we have two separate bugs here then:

* LibreCAD uses all the memory

* The desktop stops responding when memory is exhausted

These really should be two different bug IDs.

The latter is practically impossible to fix as it would require re-
engineering from the ground up to make it more robust. Plus that would
be re-engineering a desktop environment that we no longer support
(Compiz/Unity), in 16.04 which will reach end of standard support in
just over a year from now. So if you like you can open a separate bug
for that, but it's unlikely to ever be resolved.

I will make this bug about the first issue only. That can realistically
be resolved.

** Package changed: compiz (Ubuntu) => librecad (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: librecad (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

** No longer affects: unity (Ubuntu)
