Binary package hint: indicator-datetime

I clicked on the clock then "Time & Date Settings ..." nothing happened then this crash after few seconds.

I just reported bug 797146, which looks a lot like this and I suspect should be considered a duplicate, but I'm not sure. Program termination in bug 797146 occurred in a way I have not previously seen in programs not being actively debugged.

From bug 797146's description: "I'm not sure whether or not this should be considered a duplicate of bug 788801. In that bug, g_logv() called abort(), which triggered abnormal program termination with SIGABRT by calling raise(). In this bug, it appears that the program is terminated within g_logv() with SIGTRAP."

Here is the trace. From the error "GTK+ 2.x symbols detected. Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supported" it looks like it needs to be ported to gtk3

Mike, do you have time to look into porting this to GTK3?

[Eliah Kagan (degeneracypressure)]

I just posted duplicate bug 797162, which contains a complete stack trace. (It also specifically supersedes duplicate bug bug 797146, for whatever that's worth--I filed bug 797162 before I saw that bug 797146 was being definitely considered a duplicate of this bug.)

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

Sure.

duplicate bug #783958?

I'm closing this issue as now the date time preferences opens as expected.
