[Bug 1568016] [NEW] Freezes in uitk

 

Public bug reported:

Ever since moving to uitk 1.3, I see occational freezes, mostly related
to page push/pop operations. This happens very randomly but causes the
app to freeze and requires a restart.

I've triggered such freezes in many situations in all sorts of different
apps but never could really reproduce it. There is definitely a race
condition involved. Such freezes seem to happen most likely directly
after app startup when pressing a button in the toolbar while stuff is
still loading, but not only. I've also seen it happening in the middle
of using an app.

Now a friend of mine wrote an app and managed to get into a situation
where it reliably triggers a freeze. I am not sure if this is the same
as I'm observing or if its a different one. However, it is a freeze and
might lead us to the real reason. Attached you'll find an archive that
allows reproducing at least that one variant of the freeze.

** Affects: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu)
