Bug#932250: 932250

[Paul Kerry <p.kerry@sheffield.ac.uk>]

Hi all

Following up on from my previous post, further testing with 
libglib2.0-0:amd64 2.62.1-1 packages installed from testing eventually 
caused the same segfault but with the newer libglib2 version shown in 
dmesg...

[231681.228074] xfdesktop[31999]: segfault at a ip 00007f7788322b9d sp 
00007ffec3615cd0 error 4 in libglib-2.0.so.0.6200.1[7f77882d1000+80000]

so this would appear to be a red-herring as far as libglib2 is 
concerned. I have reverted back to the standard libglib2 debian 10 packages.


Having done more testing with the standard libglib2 debian 10 packages, 
it now appears that installing packages via apt which add or change xfce 
menu items via .desktop files while someone is logged in using xfce, can 
trigger the dmesg error, so it could be a bug somewhere in xfce 4.12. 
Maybe the issue has been fixed upstream in xfce 4.14 as mentioned in the 
other links?


Cheers
Paul.
