[Bug 1374942] Re: compiz crashed with signal 5 in _XReply() from unity::decoration::ForceQuitDialog::ForceQuitDialog

 

Hello Michael, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unity into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/7.2.4+14.04.20150316-0ubuntu1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

  compiz crashed with signal 5 in _XReply() from
  unity::decoration::ForceQuitDialog::ForceQuitDialog

  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  An invalid line of code would occasionally cause Unity to crash.

  [Test Case]

  (1) Download and run the attached Python script test-1374942 to create a candidate application.
  (2) Press the close button and wait for the Force Quit dialog to come up.
  (3) Choose the "Force Quit" button.

  The desktop shell should not crash.

  [Regression Potential]

  The fix for this bug involves converting an integer into a string and
  appending it to an error message instead of adding the integer value
  to the address of the error message.  There is unlikely to be a
  regression from this.

  [Other Info]

  The fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry picked from the Ubuntu "Vivid
  Vervet" dev release where it has been under daily use for some time
  without apparent regressioon.
