[Bug 475426] Re: atk_object_set_name: assertion `name != NULL' failed

 

After compliation & installation of Qt 4.6.1 on my system (Ubuntu
Karmic), I am noting same bug with various Qt Developer GUI - Tools like
assistant, linguist, designer.

Eg :

$ assistant

** (<unknown>:24424): CRITICAL **: atk_object_set_name: assertion `name != NULL' failed
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
According to following discussion thread on nokia forum for Qt.

http://www.forum.nokia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=189084

The problem for Qt Toolkit seems to be GTK-style. If I run same application with different style 
the error does not appear.

Eg : $ assistant -style plastique
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More astonishing is the fact that if I switch to Karmic repository version of Qt ( i.e 4.5.2), The
critical error message disappears.
