You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The functions below utilize g_object_get to retrieve a gchar* property.
The returned property is a new string that must be freed, it almost
never is. I started working on a patch to modify bubble.c to free
strings, but it became very extensive, I think perhaps you guys might
want to consider minor implementation changes :)

The list of functions:

defaults_get_bubble_shadow_color
defaults_get_bubble_bg_color
defaults_get_bubble_bg_opacity
defaults_get_bubble_hover_opacity
defaults_get_content_shadow_color
defaults_get_text_font_face
defaults_get_text_title_color
defaults_get_text_body_color
