[Bug 653630] Re: brasero crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_instance_get_private()

 

The upstream bug (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636431) has been marked as a duplicate of upstream bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644011. That bug is RESOLVED with status OBSOLETE, since it is believed not to occur on a GNOME 3 system (developer David King said: "This was probably fixed in the port to GApplication from libunique in Brasero
3.0, so closing as OBSOLETE.")

Is there anyone here who experiences this bug in Oneiric? Running two
concurrent instances of Brasero is *not* the only way to produce this
crash, and I am wondering if the bug is fixed for the less contrived and
actually-important (but less well understood) way in which this bug
sometimes occurs. I am guessing it is, but zero work on the natural ways
this bug manifests seems to have been done upstream. (Which is not a
criticism--perhaps not enough people get this bug without multiple
instances for such work to be done.)

Also, is there anyone here who always or usually experiences this bug
when running Brasero, on any supported release of Ubuntu (Lucid,
Maverick, Natty, or Oneiric, though probably not Oneiric since that has
GNOME 3)? If so, then even though this bug will (probably) not be fixed
upstream, it would then probably qualify to be fixed as an SRU (see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates).
