[apport] hwdb-gui crashed with GError in draw_header()

[Shirish Agarwal]

Binary package hint: hwdb-client

Hi there,
          I did all the tests, removed everything except a .torrent tht was playing and till the last window everything worked but then unexpectedly crashed. Also had to click harder or twice to make the buttons work.

Thanks for your bug report.

[Joel Garske (joel-garske)]

I had the same problem with Feisty Beta (alternate CD install right BEFORE any updates). After filling out the comments after the lastest test, the application stopped responding and went crashing a few monents after that. Apart from the hwdb-gui, only a terminal was running... i will try again, after updating and rebooting the machine.

crash report is attached.

Greetings, Joel Garske

This is, what the python stack trace says in the terminal:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/hwdb-gui", line 153, in <lambda>
    self.advance.connect("clicked", lambda w: self.adv(self.xmlfile))
  File "/usr/bin/hwdb-gui", line 585, in adv
    self.draw_header(set)
  File "/usr/bin/hwdb-gui", line 434, in draw_header
    icon_pixbuf = gtk.gdk.pixbuf_new_from_file(Constants.DATADIR + "/"+set[0])
gobject.GError: Datei »/usr/share/hwdb-client/email.png« konnte nicht geöffnet werden: No such file or directory

This error is reproducable for me.

Mine says the same thing as Joel's in Terminal:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/hwdb-gui", line 153, in <lambda>
    self.advance.connect("clicked", lambda w: self.adv(self.xmlfile))

I have just booted from the Feisty Desktop i386 CD so as to do an install. Invited to complete the Ubuntu device database information was up to the final screen that asks for additional comments when the crash was generated. I haver not run any other user level applications

[magilus (magilus)]

Works fine with the Qt hwdb-gui

[Alex Mayorga (alex-mayorga)]

This happened to me also after a fresh net install of Feisty

Linux hostname 2.6.20-14-generic #2 SMP Mon Apr 2 20:37:49 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

I'm attaching the crash report for what is worth.

No other application was running and I also perceived the buttons on the wizard "hard to press"

[Warwick Lill (warwick-lill)]

I think that you probably should mark them all as duplicates, they seem
identical, but then I haven't looked very deeply.

ok then, i mark them as dupes

[x (xk2c-deactivatedaccount)]

in the meantime other dupes were created, mark them also

[x (xk2c-deactivatedaccount)]

15 dupes now, i think someone should take a look at it

[Marco Rodrigues (gothicx)]

I've also the same problem... attachment is here.

[Marco Rodrigues (gothicx)]

Please fix it until Feisty development is closed..

[Alex Mayorga (alex-mayorga)]

I confirm this happened in AMD64 also.

Attaching the crash as well

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Affects lots of users of an application that we promote with a notification. This should get fixed for Feisty.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Grabbing.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Fix uploaded, pending acceptance from release team.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

 hwdb-client (0.6.9) feisty; urgency=low
 .
   * Add email.png (borrowed from Tango) to {,k}ubuntu-art/. (LP: #102061)

[Shirish Agarwal (shirishag75)]

Ok, it works for me atleast. Let some more people respond in the positive & then the bug can be declared as closed.

[Aurel Branzeanu (thunder-riscom)]

Yes, 0.6.9 is working.

An issue still remains - after the mouse check you have to switch the focus (to ckick on the desktop, for example) to click the Forward button, otherwise, if the focus is not switched, the Forward button doesn't work.

[Shirish Agarwal (shirishag75)]

yup, I have also seen that. I have seen that the mouse is not so responsive while clicking the forward button & one has to click couple of times or strain oneself, but I think that would be a different bug than the one file filed in here. The bug is specifically for the crash which is not happening anymore.

[Shirish Agarwal (shirishag75)]

Ok, for all those people who are having mouse issues, I have also experienced this on my PS/2 based mouse issue, is this by design or happens only on PS/2 based mouses or serial mouses or on all mouses. correction should be mices :)
Anyway, the bug has been filed as bug #105169 so people who are having issues please confirm or add your comments to it. Thanx in advance.
