That is likely unrelated to this issue and you should open a new bug for it. > This is more than just an annoying error message. It is clearly causing > apps to crash. I don't think so. You would need to get a backtrace from your segfault in order to prove your assertion. My guess is that your assertion is in fact false. > Please. Please.

Why don't you just apt-get source the gtk package, and put the patch into the debian/patches dir and dpkg-rebuild, like I did? I don't bother waiting for fixes for bugs in released versions of Ubuntu any more. More times than not, they don't come. > P.S.

The comment however was in reference to the fact that Karmic has been out too long now to hold out hope for bug fixes such as this one because most of the developers have switched focus to Lucid now and don't bother with Karmic. Yeah. It sucks for all of us who are currently running what Ubuntu calls their "current stable release" (for whatever value you want to give to stable), but that's just how this machine seems to operate. We all have to wait for Lucid now to get these sorts of bugs fixed which in fact will be a trade for a whole new batch of bugs which we will have to wait for the M* release (Melancholy Monkey? :-) to fix. -- atk_object_set_name: assertion `name != NULL' failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/475426 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
