[Bug 1403906] Re: thumbnailer crash when reading metadata

 

I have been able to reproduce this finally with the following steps:

- flash krillin (--bootstrap) with vivid-proposed
- put the broken image in ~/Pictures
- start Gallery
- if not crash, close Gallery, rm -rf .cache/com.ubuntu.gallery/ and go back to previous step

After a few tries it crashes. If you install the new packages from silo
19 (as mentioned in the linked branch MR) I can't make the crash happen
any more.

One thing that I did encounter was that when I click on the image in
gallery, it comes up fully black. The thumbnail looks correct, though.
However as far as I understand it Gallery should not use thumbnailer for
displaying full sized images. If that is the case then this is an issue
somewhere else.

Florian, Bill: since you two seem to be the hardest hit by this bug
could you test silo 19? If it works for you then post your results here
so we can get this one landed. Thanks.

Bug description:
  Test Case:
  0. Make sure you have a clean install and you never started gallery app
  1. Take a few photos with the camera and close it
  2. open gallery

  Actual  Result:
  It crashes.

  Expected Result:
  It doesn't crash.

  Downgrading to the following packages fixes the problem:
  qtubuntu-camera    0.3.3+14.10.20141001-0ubuntu1 
  thumbnailer        1.3+14.10.20141020-0ubuntu1 

  PS: you don't really need a clean install just delete gallery' QML
  cache in ~/.cache/QML/Apps

  Analysis of what landed:
  < Mirv> jibel: ok. the diff was this interesting http://launchpadlibrarian.net/191646180/thumbnailer_1.3%2B14.10.20141020-0ubuntu1_1.3%2B15.04.20141106~rtm-0ubuntu1.diff.gz together with qtubuntu-camera from rsalveti / jhodapp / satoris
  < Mirv> the qtubuntu-camera was huge: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/192809040/qtubuntu-camera_0.3.3%2B14.10.20141001-0ubuntu1_0.3.3%2B15.04.20141208.is.0.3.3%2B15.04.20141204~rtm-0ubuntu1.diff.gz (publishing history seems to confirm it's correct: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-rtm/+source/qtubuntu-camera/+publishinghistory )
  < Mirv> I've updated the bug #1376500 which the landing fixed, which was also not updated to indicate it would have been fixed in the first place
  < Mirv> the trello comment on that landing does not seem to indicate the "silo-diff" (from brendand) was used to actually check the rtm diff, as it only mentions the silo fixing two bugs
  < Mirv> jibel: crash was also mentioned in the trello: https://trello.com/c/zpBMvnsD/443-ubuntu-rtm-landing-012-qtubuntu-camera-thumbnailer-jhodapp-satoris
