The bug was first described in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=986868
Then reported to the awesomeWM maintainers:


When using Awesome window manager (confirmed in version 3.5.5), Thunar crashes if an operation showing the systray icon has been done before. It seems Thunar is trying to access some information from the tray icon whereas it does not exist anymore.

Procedure to reproduce the bug:

1) run awesome as your window manager
2) open Thunar
3) open new tab in Thunar with Ctrl-T
4) do some copying operation that displays the "File Operation Progress" popup and a tray icon (this is required, the bug doesn't appear when the operation is quick and without the popup/tray icon)
5) wait for the operation to finish or just cancel it
6) try switching to the other Thunar tab - crash should happen 

Thunar also crashes when we try to open a menu or to copy files.

I think I can confirm this issue. Also with awesome, but I couldn't reproduce the bug as described below. What I did was (may not be minimal):

1) go to my music, copy a folder
2) go to my sd card, paste it
3) go back to the previous folder, copy another folder
4) back to my sd card, paste it
5) delete some other folder
6) crash

I've had this several times now, and I think it has only when deleting an item.

Comment 6 David Mohr 2015-06-23 20:27:46 CEST

Yeah, I have to copy twice, otherwise it doesn't crash. This is with thunar 1.6.10 on Debian sid (xfce 4.12).

Cannot do much here, still waiting for the bug in gtk2 to be fixed. Thanks for the link Hugo!

Does this bug still happen for gtk3 applications ?  Thunar master got ported to gtk3 ( dev. release 1.7.0 features as well gtk3 )

Please try thunar 1.8.0+ which is gtk3-based.
Let us know if this bug is still valid (and reopen).
