Seems like they might have found the problem ...https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11450

You mean comment 77 by Ali Akcaagac 2015-03-07 14:23:19 CET:

But what happens ? Here an attempt to explain.

Everyone ran Thunar 1.6.3 before. Then Thunar 1.6.4 came up and everyone simply upgraded it. People continued using Thunar 1.6.4 as is. No further changes made to settings.

The crash shows up once people copy stuff from A to B.

But!

There was this new option introduced in Thunar 1.6.4 in preferences saying

"Show file size in binary format"

This is by default set to "off" (unselected)... But internally when code executes the condition is how ?

This causes the crashes. The initial condition is unknown.

Once I selected this setting then I won't get any crashes anymore. After that you can unselect this setting again to set it's state to "off" and even then all crashes are gone.

I tried this in the preferences of Thunar and ticking that "Show file size in binary format"-box made my crashing to stop, at least during the couple of copy-paste actions I did with my TestFolder...

Cheers,

rob

Hmmm... All this talk about "uninitialised" options in XFCE, reminds me that some option settings effectively work in one state (say, ON or OFF) while they show up differently on the configuration panels by default. To synchronise their "visible" and "operational" states, I typically toggle them once or twice on the configuration panels.

I have never understood how this "Out-Of-Sync-By-Default" behaviour came about, but it is all beginning to make sense to me now.

Upgraded to 1.6.30

Thanks

Well, check out the bug report. The cause is pretty much understood now, and it's not dbus after all (perhaps it's just that dbus-1.8.x is faster and avoids the races). I've got a build of Thunar out with an earlier patch that probably fixes the behavior *most* of the time, but once an official patch makes it into git, I'll rebuild with it.

Thanks for the information, I removed the dbus slackbuild from the build scripts.
Can you share your patch?

rworkman · 03-15-2015, 02:09 PM

There's been a better patch since I posted these packages, so it's probably worth looking on the bug report instead; however, here's what I've used: http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/14.1/testi...e-4.12/Thunar/

Hi,

There is an error with installing the thunar-archive-plugin (maybe also in xfce packages from Pat?):

Code:

Slackware package /tmp/thunar-archive-plugin-0.3.1-x86_64-1.tgz created.

ls: cannot access /tmp/thunar-archive-plugin*.txz: No such file or directory

Which was shown at the end of my building process. The package is there, but as .tgz, not .txz

EDIT You want to change the last line of the thunar-archive-plugin.Slackbuild to:

Code:

/sbin/makepkg -l y -c n $OUTPUT/$PRGNAM-$VERSION-$ARCH-$BUILD.${PKGTYPE:-txz}

It is fixed now.

Segmentation fault

and nothing about segfault

This is on Slackware64-14.1 with mpla's slackbuilds.
P.S. I see this bug, but there are no solution. I revert back xfce4-mixer-4.8...
