2016-03-03 22:15:28 Trent Nelson description https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758641 Please consider taking this memleak fix from upstream. I've built the package with it locally and confirmed that it fixes the leak in xfce4-power-manager, which is mentioned in the upstream report. It also fixes a similarly sized (hundreds of MB after a few days up time) leak that I have observed in the NetworkManager service. Let me know if you need any further details. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: libglib2.0-0 2.46.1-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-25.30-generic 4.2.6 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-25-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: LXDE Date: Sat Feb 13 09:58:03 2016 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-12-25 (49 days ago) InstallationMedia: Lubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) SourcePackage: glib2.0 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758641 Please consider taking this memleak fix from upstream. I've built the package with it locally and confirmed that it fixes the leak in xfce4-power-manager, which is mentioned in the upstream report. It also fixes a similarly sized (hundreds of MB after a few days up time) leak that I have observed in the NetworkManager service. [Impact] Hundreds of MB memory leak in certain dbus applications, including default services like xfce4-power-manager and NetworkManager with default configurations. [Test Case] Clean install of lubuntu 15.10 on a notebook with working battery. Observe xfce4-power-manager and NetworkManager* in "top" over 48-72hrs of normal use (web browsing, text editing, shell, etc). Both will be taking on several tens of MB per day of additional RES. *NetworkManager may require buggy wifi to reproduce. rtl8723be in my case. [Regression Potential] I'm no authority on the glib code base, but the upstream patch looks very safe to me. Let me know if you need any further details.
