Diodon crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast()

[Xavier Guillot]

Hello,

It was the first restart of my computer (Ubuntu 14.04) after upgrading to the last version of Diodon (1.1.0) on the Daily ppa (but it was still with the saucy repo, I have to update the ppa to trusty) and having cleared the history.

The indicator was well visible, but the paste items - 2 copies of text via Ctrl-C on Firefox - did not appear on the list, which remained empty.

After the crash, I manually launched Diodon again, and now the 2 rows are well here in the indicator history.

Thanks for the feedback.

It seems like that the SIGSEGV could be an issue with linking against and old version of saucy as it crashed in the libpeas library.

Could you reproduce this issue or is it now running well after you have updated to the daily Trusty ppa?

[Xavier Guillot (valeryan-24)]

For the moment, after several days with update on Trusty ppa, the problem never appeared again and Diodon works well !

Thanks for the feedback. Closing this issue for now then.

Reopen if it occurs again.
