Bug 363313 – [gnome-overlay] app-misc/tracker hangs with nautilus-3

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Lorenzo Cabrini 2011-04-12 16:05:41 UTC]

I am running Gnome3, and it seems libnautilus-tracker-tags is built against _both_ gtk2 and gtk3. I'm not sure if this is the cause of the problem, but I found https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=662798 which suggests that it may be.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Nautilus
2. Right-click on any object
3. Select "Propertà" (Properties) or "Tags" from context menu
Actual Results:  
Nautilus freezes. Clicking the close button will bring up dialog to force close nautilus.

Starting nautilus from shell doesn't report anything unusual.

Expected Results:  
The properties or tags dialog should pop up.

Notice: I am running gnome3 from the gnome overlay. 

Partial output of ldd:
        libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 (0x00007f2579a3f000)
	libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 (0x00007f257978d000)
	(0x00007f2579583000)
	libgtk-3.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-3.so.0 (0x00007f2578f8e000)
	libgdk-3.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgdk-3.so.0 (0x00007f2578d14000)

1) Please post your `emerge --info' too.
2) strace output or a gdb backtrace from the running program would be nice.

emerge --info

Sorry, I read the "this is where you put emerge --info" only *after* having uploaded as an attachment.

gdb doesn't really give anything out of the ordinary. I'm not very familiar with strace, but I emerged it and ran it. When I try to select "tags" or "properties" from the nautilus context menu for an object, strace output freezes at:
futex(0x19d2084, FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE, 1, NULL

strace gives a lot of output. I can attach it, but how much output? Should I attach all the output or just a part?

I should also add that moving libnautilus-tracker-tags.so out of /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0 makes nautilus behave well (but obviously without tagging).

It's mentioned in the bug reporting guide[1] which the bugzilla front page links to[2]. :)

Just everything? Compress the file if it exceeds the bugzilla limit.

this is to be expected. Don't mix up plugins for gtk2 and gtk3 apps.
