Bug 111550 – idesk-0.7.4 crashes when starting xmms

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Juraj Hudák 2005-11-05 05:34:09 UTC]

The x11-misc/idesk-0.7.4 chrashes after starting xmms. The old package
x11-misc/idesk-0.5.6 worked well.

If I compile idesk-0.7.4 by running ./configure --prefix=/tmp/idesk the binary
in /tmp/idesk/bin/ works well. The problem occures when support for LIBSN is
included ./configure --prefix=/tmp/idesk-sn --enable-libsn. This is done when
emerging the package.

Crash occurs in startup-notification:

idesk passes NULL as display, sn doesn't like that.

same here with amd64. Same problem also occurs when iam trying to restore a kde
application (e.g kopete,amarok) from tray in fluxbox.

Version 0.7.5 fixes this issue. From ChangeLog:

- Problem with startup notification support (option --enable-libsn).
The idesk-0.7.4 chrashes after starting xmms. This bug was reported
by Gentoo users. If you don't have the support for statup notification
the program works well. The bug is fixed.

I've tested 0.7.5 and it works now fine.
