Package: reportbug Version: 7.1.7 Crash while viewing and scrolling through existing bug report. Crash... (reportbug:2841): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'reportbug' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 212803 error_code 11 request_code 130 (MIT-SHM) minor_code 5) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) Trace/breakpoint trap Regards Phil
happens occasionally with very few bugs. So if anyone experiences this bug and reads this message: Please tell which bug you were trying to view! Thanks.
Hi, the error is the X server refusing a shared memory (MIT-SHM) request for lack of resources, raised inside GDK. As Nis wrote in 2020, it only happened with a few specific bugs, but nobody could tell us which ones, so there's nothing to reproduce it with. Closing. If it happens again with a current version, please reopen and tell us the number of the bug you were viewing. Regards, Sandro
