core backtrace

I see this crash a lot in Fedora 27 and higher with xfce4-notifyd 0.4.1

The notification appears to work fine but this crash is picked up by Fedora's automatic bug reporting tool. Both these crashes appear upon just logging into a Xfce session.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Hi, thanks for raising this upstream.
It looks as though those are two distinct issues, one of them should be addressed by this patch: https://git.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-notifyd/commit/?id=112bd7f0b4859c043df6e0c6cfa3052e807210f6

It may make a lot of sense to test the current git master to see if the bugs are still reproducible. If things look ok I can do another bugfix release.
(Please also ask your downstream testers to take a look!)

[Simon Steinbeiß (ochosi)]

Should be fixed with the 0.4.2 release.

Please re-open if you can still reproduce this bug with 0.4.2.

Should be fixed in version 0.4.2!
