[Bug 1506427] Re: Using calendar with keys might cause Indicator-datetime to crash unity-panel-service

 

Hello,

I've enabled proposed and installed all new packages but I'm still
getting the problem.

As soon as I log in I need to open tty1 and kill the indicator-datetime-
service.

This is what's happening when I'm starting it (manually):

$ sudo dpkg -l|grep -i indicator-datetime
ii  indicator-datetime                                          15.10+16.10.20160820.1-0ubuntu1             amd64        Simple clock

$ lsb_release -d

Bug description:
  [Impact] 
  Unity panel service crashes (removing indicators from panel) when calendar menu is opened and there are some key presses.

  [Test Case]
  This is a quite random bug that is not easy to reproduce, it happens sometimes that you open the indicator-datetime and after a keypress the panel crashes.

  [Regression Potential]
  Nothing expected, but calendar item in datetime might behave differently on key-presses.
  Although the fix is quite safe since we're just ensuring that we disconnect from parent widget signals on menuitem destruction.
