[Bug 1443002] [NEW] RawTherapee causes exceptions with xfce4

 

Public bug reported:

Xubuntu 14.10
Xfce4 4.10.1
RawTherapee 4.0.12+dfsg-2

RawTherapee runs fine under normal usage.  However every attempt to
change the theme or font:

Preferences->General->Select Theme  (or Select Font)

causes the display/desktop/window manager to disappear and then
redisplay.  The RawTherapee theme or font does update as expected.
However, if you perform these operation more than a couple of times, the
window manager crashes for good, leaving a bare RawTherapee application
running without window controls, no desktop panel and no means of
switching desktops using keyboard shortcuts.  The only solution
available appears to be to drop into a console window, kill the "upstart
--user" process and login once again.

The first couple of times this occurred I got a pop-up error report
window, but did not immediately submit a bug report.  After the first
display manager failure, this option was no longer presented upon
subsequent attempts to change the RawTherapee theme.

Other than this faulty manager interaction, all programs seem to operate
without problems.
