[Bug 1293252] Re: gnome-panel crashed with signal 5 in _XReply()

 

Hello Ron, or anyone else affected,

Accepted libwnck3 into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libwnck3/3.4.7-0ubuntu3.1 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * Games using the Unity engine (like KSP) cause gnome-panel to crash,
  making things like flashback unusable.

  [Test Case]

  * Run gnome-panel (like in gnome flashback).

  * Launch Kerbal Space Program.  Not sure whether there's a simpler
  test case for those without KSP.

  [Regression Potential]

  * The patch for the bug suggests the possibility of weirdly colored
  icons where crashes used to occur.

  [Other Info]

  * libwnck3 (3.14.0-1) allows gnome-panel to continue running in 14.10.
