Messages of the form "GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 6 was not found when attempting to remove it" also occur when running GParted.

For example on Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 beta1:

$ sudo apt-get install gparted
$ sudo gparted
======================
libparted : 2.3
======================

(gpartedbin:2677): GLib-CRITICAL ** Source ID 7 was not found when attempting to remove it

(gpartedbin:2677): GLib-CRITICAL ** Source ID 6 was not found when attempting to remove it

(gpartedbin:2677): GLib-CRITICAL ** Source ID 26 was not found when attempting to remove it
...

I have only seen this occur with Ubuntu 14.04. My suspicion is that there might be a regression in GLib, or possibly a mismatch with GTK and GLib.

Quote from an upstream (bugzilla.gnome.org) comment:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721369

    GLib recently started throwing a warning when g_source_remove()
    is passed garbage (as per warning). Your applications have probably been broken
    for a while, and there's no telling what could actually have happened in the
    past when g_source_remove() would happily close any random source because the
    programmer got the wrong argument to g_source_remove().

So if true, it looks like this should be reasssigned either to Glib, or to all the affected applications.

The problem isn't just the error (log pollution). When the error occurs, I see ssh sessions actually hang when console-kit-daemon prints the error. This is a regression in 14.04 vs 13.10.

[Jeffrey Flaker (jflaker)]

I just started noticing this due to logging 2 systems' syslog.

This is happening quite frequently source is console-kit-daemon according the the syslogs being recorded.

[Ariel Faigon (ariel.faigon)]

Sorry I have to correct my comment #10 above.

I found the direct reason for my session hangs and they are unrelated to this Glib-CRITICAL messages. Just conincidental.

The Glib-CRITICAL errors are annoying and indicate some incorrect calls from various apps to Glib, but not a serious issue as far as I'm concerned.

I'm getting this too. /var/log/syslog gets this:

Feb 17 11:17:01 redback console-kit-daemon[3481]: GLib-CRITICAL: Source ID 373 was not found when attempting to remove it

From reading this launchpad entry, I infer that it is a bug in each application that generates this. So perhaps my message should be reported against console-kit-daemon. Anyone know?

I have the same error within a test program using GtkTreeView + GtkTreeStore component from GTK+ 2. Thus, it seems to be a bug in GTK+.

@Dmitry:
Are you sure that you always have a valid id when calling g_source_remove(id), and that you call that function for each id only once?

[David Hines (tamumath-david)]

@Manfred you may have fix this problem in ConsoleKit2 on Oct 5, 2014. Is this related?

I am on Mint 18.1. This problem affects me too. Is anyone working on it, please?

[Karl Schindler (k-schindler)]

old and still not fixed:
(SWT:7981): GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 383 was not found when attempting to remove it

Ubuntu 16.10 kernel 4.11.8-041108-generic

[Manfred Hampl (m-hampl)]

@Karl Schindler:
What you see is probably a bug in Eclipse, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=479646
Something that eclipse has to work on.

[Karl Schindler (k-schindler)]

thx Manfred

[chris pollock (cpollock)]

I see the same in my Ubuntu 16.04.3

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

Another example:
Before fatal error, IDE message log keeps printing:
Source ID #### was not found when attempting to remove it

[Dara Poon (dpoon)]

The message is emitted by glib: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/commit/a919be3d39150328874ff647fb2c2be7af3df996

The commit log description is: "gmain: Warn when g_source_remove() fails". So why is it calling g_critical() instead of g_warning()? Obviously, it's not a critical error, if people are able to live with these annoying messages for five years with no obvious ill effects. Critical errors are often routed to /dev/console, and it's clearly inappropriate to escalate these messages that high.

[johnnyb0y (ubuntu64)]

Still pumping out messages to syslog:

Feb 22 07:45:04 R2D2 console-kit-daemon[1505]: GLib-CRITICAL: Source ID 69605 was not found when attempting to remove it

Bug is over 5 years old. I have my suspicions that this will never get fixed.
