GNOME 2.18 Showstoppers



ahoj!

having the hardcode freeze for gnome 2.18 in one week, i collected
another quick list to identify some of our worst current problems.
but generally, the situation with regard to the worst crashers has
drastically improved - see the end of the email for the changelog.


================================================
EOG
================================================
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=379919
=> Port HEAD to use EogJobQueue

blocks bug 320206 which has 134 dups total.
claudio states that this cannot be addressed for 2.18, but will get in
for an early 2.19 state, so i set a 2.20 showstopper milestone.


================================================
EVOLUTION
================================================
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=334966
=> Evolution crashes sometimes when closing main window

172 dups total, several attempts to fix this already, and still no
reliable way to reproduce this.
it seems like this only happens with "empty trash on exit" enabled, so
if somebody can reproduce this reliably, please test the patch attached
to comment 109, and make the evolution hackers (and of course especially
the evolution users) happy!


================================================
GNOME-TERMINAL
================================================
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348979
=> crash in Terminal.

142 dups total.
this still needs a better stacktrace, still not much info available.
perhaps anybody can help here and provide a better trace?


================================================
GTK+
================================================
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349697
=> crash on Open Folder

637 dups total, the worst bug currently.
according to comment 219, perhaps the fix for bug 396161 has also fixed
this issue, but we unfortunately don't know for sure. seems like time
(read: gtk+ >= 2.10.8) will tell... :-/


================================================
EPIPHANY
================================================
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353503
=> crash after theme change [ gtk_style_realize] [ gtk_style_ref]

106 dups total.
this is currently unfortunately blocked by an upstream mozilla bug, see
comment 60, so it's not really in our hands...


================================================

Changes/Fixes since the last review[1]:
      * the longstanding g-s-t bug 356180 has been fixed
      * Theme-change bug 353498 (terminal) has been fixed 
      * gst-streamer-ugly bug 336370 has been fixed
      * gedit bug 354046 has been worked around
      * 166838 and 325988 aren't important enough to be blockers

thanks,
andre
