Hi all
Following up on from my previous post, further testing with
libglib2.0-0:amd64 2.62.1-1 packages installed from testing eventually
caused the same segfault but with the newer libglib2 version shown in
dmesg...
[231681.228074] xfdesktop[31999]: segfault at a ip 00007f7788322b9d sp
00007ffec3615cd0 error 4 in libglib-2.0.so.0.6200.1[7f77882d1000+80000]
so this would appear to be a red-herring as far as libglib2 is
concerned. I have reverted back to the standard libglib2 debian 10 packages.
Having done more testing with the standard libglib2 debian 10 packages,
it now appears that installing packages via apt which add or change xfce
menu items via .desktop files while someone is logged in using xfce, can
trigger the dmesg error, so it could be a bug somewhere in xfce 4.12.
Maybe the issue has been fixed upstream in xfce 4.14 as mentioned in the
other links?
Cheers
Paul.
