[Bug 887850] Re: Assert failures in cairo-surface.c:1287: cairo_surface_set_device_offset: Assertion `status == CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS' failed, after upgrading to Oneiric with unity-2d

 

@rodmr

as per the upstream bug report comments, the latest libcairo having that issue was 1.12 and there is no activity since newer version is used. Chris Wilson mainly said that apps was faulty to not check some events coming from cairo/pango. The upgrades then seem to take care of such events; so no more report activity about that.
Sadly the freedesktop report remain open; and this cant be set 'invalid/fixed' directly inside launchpad. That's why an other package has been randomly chosen to then set it 'invalid'.

Bug description:
  After upgrading to Ubuntu 11.10, Chromium started crashing randomly
  with errors like:

  [12848:12848:46799318261:ERROR:browser_main.cc(96)] Gtk: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -2147483648 and height 876
  <snip>
  chromium-browser: /build/buildd/cairo-1.10.2/src/cairo-surface.c:1287: cairo_surface_set_device_offset: asserzione "status == CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS" non riuscita.
  Annullato

  When the Gtk: gtk_widget_size_allocate() errors happen I can see the
  tabs width becoming very small and this is usually a few seconds
  before the crash. If I resize the browser's window the tabs return to
  the correct width and I get a few extra seconds before it crashes.

  Visiting certain sites (like ebay) and opening new tabs seems to give
  more chances to crash, but not always.

  Upgrading Chromium to 15.0.874.106 (Build 107270 Linux) from the
  proposed repository did not help. Nor it did disabling all the
  extensions.

  I'm running a Ubuntu 2D session.
