A segmentation fault occurs in function `blow_expensive_caches` of library `libmate-desktop-2` used for example by `mate-base/caja`. The patch provided in URL fixes this issue (it revers a 12 years old regression). I already issued an ebuild patch on oz123’s Gentoo overlay for MATE Desktop Environment: https://github.com/oz123/mate-de-gentoo/pull/80 Reproducible: Always
Or update to 1.26.1 would address this too I think
Thanks Joakin for the feedback, I didn’t see the new release. This is indeed better. Links updated.
