Description Polleke 2019-01-15 07:31:59 CET
While removing large images (4MB) with the Delete button Thunar crashes, time after time.
Sending error report is not possible (sending error).
Comment 1 alexxcons editbugs 2019-01-15 21:08:13 CET
Cannot reproduce, does not happen for me, need more information.

Please enable coredumps, so that you can get a backtrace of the crash. Here is a manual how that can be done:
https://docs.xfce.org/contribute/bugs/start

Are these images located on a local filesystem ?
Can you take a try if it as well happens for thunar 1.8.x ?
Comment 2 Polleke 2019-01-15 21:52:22 CET
The images where on a external USB drive. You may forget/delete this reporting. I don't know/understand how to enable backtraces.
To complicated. Thanks anyway for your support.

Found a crash report about Thunar crash but is is over 7MB and cannot attach it.

Ok, great, will reope the bug.

You either can try to compress the crash report, or you can upload it somewhere else and drop a link here.

The ineresting part is only the backtrace, which is just something like 20 lines. I dont need the whole coredump.
So if you can spot the backtrace, just copy + past it here.
Comment 6 Polleke 2019-01-18 15:28:35 CET
I feel rather stupid because I failed to make an archive with Xarchiver. So I upoaded it to G-drive and here's the link.
I hope it will succeed:

Comment 7 alexxcons editbugs 2019-01-19 23:27:32 CET
Dont mind, everybody needs to start somewhere =)
Try installing "thunar-archive-plugin". It hopefully will simplify Xarchiver handling for you.

 WRT the .crash file. That format seems to be something Ubuntu specific, not of use for me.

To get the backtrace out of it, including the thunar debug symbols, you need to do the following:
1. install packages "apport-retrace" and "thunar-dbg"
2. apport-retrace -g MY_CRASHFILE.crash
3. this should start gdb for you, where you can type "bt" to get a backtrace.

Comment 8 Polleke 2019-01-20 09:35:10 CET
Thank you, one step further:
1. thumar-archibe is already installed
2. with Synaptic I intalled support-retrace
3 searching in Synataptic thunar-bg: not to find
4. In terminal: sudo apt-get install thunar=dbg: can package not find.
Comment 9 alexxcons editbugs 2019-01-22 21:39:33 CET
You are using Ubuntu ?  Than it's this package:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=thunar-dbg
Possibly it is called different for other distributions.

For me (debian) this works:
sudo apt-get install thunar-dbg
Comment 10 Polleke 2019-01-22 23:09:57 CET
You may remove this topic.
I am using Xubuntu 18.04.1 and Thunar dbg is not present.
Command sudo apt-get install thunar-dbg gives an error:
sudo apt-get install thunar-dbg
[sudo] password for polleke: 
Reading packetlist... Done
Tree of requirements is being built up
The status information is read ... Ready
E: Can not find package thunar-dbg

I am finished with this. Sorry :(
Comment 11 alexxcons editbugs 2019-01-23 16:12:39 CET
Looks like you have to add an additional package repository when you want to install debug packages in (X)Ubuntu: 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debug%20Symbol%20Packages

Sorry, did not know that, for me (debian) the debug packages are in the default package repo.

So well, if you would be still motivated, you could go that path (or alternatively compile thunar from source)

> I am finished with this. Sorry :(
This sounds like there is no motivation left :( ... so I will close this bug. If I am wrong, please reopen !
