[Bug 1336260] Re: compiz crashed with signal 5 in g_type_create_instance()

 

This problem is unlikely related to the way bamfdaemon is built, but
could be related to the libgtop2-7 package.

The bamfdaemon package was built against libgtop2-7 package version
2.28.5-2 in Ubuntu 14.04 and the binaries copied to Utopic.  The version
of libgtop2-7 that the Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" development
prerelease is shipping as of this date is 2.30.0.is.2.28.5-0ubuntu1
which contains /usr/lib/libgtop-2.0.so.7.2.0 and which satisfies the
runtime bamfdaemon dependencies.

I see from the attached Dependencies.txt file that you have the package
libgtop2-7 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 installed on your system.  I'm not sure where
that package came from or if there is some convoluted history to be
revealed in the Ubuntu archives (I mean, look at the package version,
will ya?), but my guess is it contains libgtop-2.0.so.10.* which will
not satisfy the runtime dependencies of bamfdaemon.  I think the proper
fix for this problem is to remove your hand-crafted symbolic link and
then downgrade the version of the libgtop2-7 to the one in Utopic.

Please do that and let us know how it turns out so we can further
process this bug.
