2013-03-03 11:25:23 Launchpad Janitor synaptic (Ubuntu): status New Confirmed
2013-03-08 12:44:29 MMlosh description Hello. After upgrade to Ringtail and reboot I launched synaptic to remove usual self-appointed junk and set the correct packages to be marked "manual". There was one entry named "libexttextcat-1.0-0" in the category Status -> Not installed (residual config) No version information or description (Probably a not-anymore-existant package) Any attempt to select it would immediately crash synaptic. There is no reason given on the console. Only 90 times a line saying "(synaptic:17010): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkNotebook 0x1a934a0 is mapped but visible child GtkLabel 0x1c92620 is not mapped" Relevant piece of strace (from the time between click on the entry and crash) and gdb stack traces are attached. After upgrade to Ringtail and reboot I launched synaptic to remove usual self-appointed junk. I navigated into the category Status -> Not installed (residual config) There was an entry "libexttextcat-1.0-0", blank, blank, blank. There was no version information and no description. The package vanished from the repo and was removed during the upgrade as obsolete. Any attempt to select it immediately crashes synaptic. (Mouse, Keyboard.. does not matter) There is no reason given on the console. Only *45* times the following line: (*90* lines in total, every other line was blank) "(synaptic:17010): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkNotebook 0x1a934a0 is mapped but visible child GtkLabel 0x1c92620 is not mapped" Relevant piece of strace (from the time between click on the entry and crash) and gdb stack traces are attached.
