Description David Hare 2011-03-16 17:10:07 CDT

I'm getting either a "segfault" "signal 11" or nothing, using Zenity with radiolist. All other Zenity options seem to work.

For example:

ans=$(zenity  --list  --text="Choose one of these:" --checklist  --column "Pick" --column "Fruit" TRUE Apples FALSE Oranges FALSE "Pears" FALSE "Bananas"); echo $ans

This means, in a Trinity session, no script using zenity with radiolist will work. If I replace "radiolist" with "checklist" it does work.

I tested this on two different machines with Trinity and LXDE also installed, radiolist works OK in LXDE; so this looks like a Trinity-only issue. It does not matter if I use konsole, lxterminal or xterm.

Can anyone else replicate that?

David,

Can you confirm this with 3.5.13. I have a sneaking suspicion that a 
gtk-qt-engine bug was causing it. I can't replicate this in 3.5.13 however so 
it might be fixed.

If this isn't occuring anymore, I'd like to close it.

Comment 2 David Hare 2012-02-01 12:49:45 CST

No, it's not fixed in 3.5.13

Using a zenity radiolist gives this error as before 

:~$ zenity --list --text="Choose one of these:" --radiolist  --column "Pick" --column "Fruit" TRUE "Apples" FALSE "Oranges" FALSE "Pears" FALSE "Bananas"
KCrash: crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2
KCrash: Application Name = gtk-qt-application path = <unknown> pid = 9134
Segmentation fault

It does work for checklist. This is still an issue because any script that uses a zenity radiolist will fail.


I didn't quite get the example right before, this one should be better.

Here is what I have installed for gtk engines:

:~$ dpkg -l|grep gtk|grep engine
ii  gtk-qt-engine-trinity                     4:3.5.13-0debian9+r1260773+pr2~squeeze  theme engine using Qt for GTK+ 2.x and Trinity

Comment 3 David Hare 2012-12-18 09:18:04 CST

I'm working round this by using a "wrapper" script to convert zenity commmands to yad. 

No gtk-qt-engine is now installed here but the bug remains, Any script using zenity "radiolist" fails.

Comment 4 Darrell 2013-05-22 20:40:57 CDT

Is this report still valid? 3.5.13.1 or 3.5.13.2?

Comment 5 David Hare 2013-06-06 18:45:21 CDT

Sorry late reply..

It seems to be working in current 3.5.13.2
