Package: libdbus-1-3 Version: 1.4.6-1 Severity: critical Tags: sid experimental Justification: breaks the whole system
after the last update from libdbus-1-3 1.4.6 to 1.4.8-2 (and dbus and dbus-x11, same versions), kde startup has failed consistently. Reproducibility is 100%. /var/log/messages contains quite a bit of the following lines: kernel: [ 94.235717] plasma-desktop[3805]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f8351e74ff6 sp 00007fffe944f860 error 4 in libQtCore.so.4.7.2[7f8351ce2000+29c000] kernel: [ 109.306642] krunner[4295]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f14b0e2dff6 sp 00007fff928364f0 error 4 in libQtCore.so.4.7.2[7f14b0c9b000+29c000] Then looping on the krunner segfault for a while. Although it looks like a libQtCore problem, the output of "startx /usr/bin/startkde -- :1 2>&1" points towards dbus: process 14065: arguments to dbus_message_iter_append_basic() were incorrect, assertion "*bool_p == 0 || *bool_p == 1" failed in file dbus-message.c line 2541. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. Application::crashHandler() called with signal 11; recent crashes: 1 KCrash: Application 'kwin' crashing... Downgrade to libdbus-1.4.6 solved the issue completely. Upgrade to 1.5.0 did not. In short, the system is stable only for libdbus-1-3 <= 1.4.6.
