Description Aaditya Bagga 2020-03-01 11:46:56 CET
Hi,

After updating to mousepad 0.4.2, it crashes sometimes while viewing files.

To debug, I opened it via terminal, and got following output after a crash:

(mousepad:3460): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 14:11:14.158: gtk_main_quit: assertion 'main_loops != NULL' failed
free(): invalid pointer
Aborted

One thing to note is that it crashes sometimes but not all the time (around 1 / 10).

Tested with Slackware64-current on 2 systems, x86_64 and aarch64.

Thanks.

Please try to obtain a backtrace of the crash.

Thanks Theo. Will get back with backtrace when it crashes again.

Any luck yet? Without a backtrace or steps to trigger the crash it will not be possible to debug this issue.

Nope, no crashes since. :-)

I am thinking it might be related to the underlying GTK stack, which has been updated several times since posting (on Slackware64-current).

If you agree, we can keep this open for some time more, and if mousepad does not crash again, will mark it as resolved.

Thanks much your help Theo!
