f-spot crashes when exporting pictures to directory

[Jean Levasseur]

Binary package hint: f-spot

When exporting large amount of bog-sized pictures do directory, f-spot crashes. Here's the terminal output I got using "f-spot --debug" option:

(f-spot:11519): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: GdkPixbufLoader finalized without calling gdk_pixbuf_loader_close() - this is not allowed. You must explicitly end the data stream to the loader before dropping the last reference.

open uri = file:///media/multimedia/Photos/2007/03/18/img_6797.jpg
Insufficient memory (case 4)

The several WARING lines don't seem to make any problem as there is plenty others like those ones but still.

The last line seems to be the error that causes the crash.

To reproduce, I was exporting 208 pictures of about 2 Mb each. I have tried 4 times, every times it crashes reaching about 191 to 193 pictures.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducable with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

[David Erosa (erosa)]

I can confirm this bug on Feisty PPC, tried to export about 1600 images and always dies when about 850 files are copied.

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

Thanks, to be send upstream by someone getting the bug.

[ward (ward-pong)]

Confirmed here on Feisty i386 - export to directory (in 'copy only' mode, no resize) crashes f-spot *every time* after about 50 out of 190 images.

[ward (ward-pong)]

I believe this is upstream bug #471713:

  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471713

[Torsten Spindler (tspindler)]

The problem does not happen for me on Hardy when starting f-spot with sloppy locks enabled for xcb:

$ LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=1 f-spot

[Béné (bene-d)]

Torsten's fix seems not to work on Gutsy. The stacktrace remains the same as reported on http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471713

[Jeffrey Ratcliffe (jeffreyratcliffe)]

With an up-to-date Hardy I get the same warnings, one per image:

(f-spot:8054): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: GdkPixbufLoader finalized without calling gdk_pixbuf_loader_close() - this is not allowed. You must explicitly end the data stream to the loader before dropping the last reference.

and then it segfaults with this trace:

Stacktrace:

Torsten's fix seems not to work on Hardy. I get the additional output:

I'm not able to reproduce anymore on Intrepid. I have tried to export to folder and it worked flawlessly. Can anyone with Intrepid confirm?

[jkyamog (jkyamog)]

Still a problem for me on Intrepid.

[Fabien Cortina (fabien.cortina)]

I have the same problem (on Intrepid), but on importing the pictures from a camera (or a card reader).

Here is the stack trace:

ou must explicitly end the data stream to the loader before dropping the last reference.

Hi,

for me it works without a problem in Intrepid.

It still happens in Karmic but not as much. The frustrating part is losing all my work, like highlighting photos and ready-ing them for facebook export.

[Kemel Zaidan aka Legendario (kemelzaidan)]

This problem seems to be caused by some gnome themes. Changing solves it.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the new comment seems to be bug #411941

[Copolycube (copolycube)]

I can confirm this bug. I tried some default themes and this seems to happen whatever gnome-theme I use.

--- BEFORE the crash, f-spot says that :
