Hallo. I updated Thunar to 1.6.0 yesterday (Arch Linux, x86_64, kernel 3.6.9). The program crashes every time I right click to a folder (but not a file), and is described here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1201789#p1201789 Today I search through the bugzilla and found it similar to this https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6640 only I don't use the cvs plugin. But then I saw the changes report http://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/tree/NEWS?id=thunar-1.6.0 and realised what the problem is: I am using the greek locale el_GR.UTF8, but there isn't a greek translation yet for the new features (namely, tabs). So when Thunar is presented with the right-click menu (which contains the option to open a new tab) it can't find the proper messages in greek, it doesn't revert to defauly C but instead crashes. gdb says: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007ffff462fdc8 in vfprintf () from /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) strace warning: Couldn't determine the static tracepoint marker to probe Static tracepoint 1 at 0x7ffff462fdc8 If I start thunar with "LANG=C thunar", then it works normally. Thank you
No, missing translations are usually fine (the C string is shown instead). But I guess there's a borken string in the Greek translation file (e.g. a wrong number/type of C printf formatters can cause a crash).
Fixed the broken strings.
Fixed within five hours?? Wow… thanks very much everyone :-) I'm looking forward to the update!
