Description Robert Lewis 2007-10-07 17:32:48 UTC
Xfce4 Panel Manager crashes when trying to delete a panel. I am under the impression it will modify panels.xml in the configuration. I am able to customize manually through this file, but Panel Manager does not work properly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start new Xfce4
2.Start Panel Manager
3.Delete a panel

Actual Results:  
Panel System appears to crash.

Expected Results:  
The respective panel should be removed

Working perfectly fine here, go and read some documents,

Reopen when you have all necessary information available.

Please follow these instructions to reproduce the bug.
1) Re-emerge xfce4 and all dependencies with synced portage tree
2) backup/clear all cache data related to xfce4
3) run startxfce4
4) Delete any panel

This appears not to be a crash but a logical programming error.

Nope, no luck with those, cannot reproduce.
Comment 4 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-10-08 13:04:56 UTC
Provided info is useless, I've asked for backtrace [1] and default information like emerge --info [2] but it was not provided.

[2] http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/bugzilla-howto.xml

You can still reopen with requested backtrace and information.
