Subject: segmentation fault in Totem
Date: Thu, 6 Jun 2019 15:09:35 -0300

Hi!

I found a segmentation fault that happens with the current totem
version that is installed with Guix. It occurs when the application is
closed.
I found it runnig Guix on top of an Ubuntu 18.04 distro. Then I tested
it over a Fedora 30 and a Debian 9. Lastly, with Guix System v1.0.1.

The outputs differ a little, but in all cases the three main lines appear:

---------------------------start here
------------------------------------------------------
(totem:25833): Gtk-WARNING **: 12:50:35.676:
gtk_window_present_with_time() should not be called with 0, or
GDK_CURRENT_TIME as a timestamp, the timestamp should instead be
gathered at the time the user initiated the request for the window to
be shown

(totem:25833): libpeas-WARNING **: 12:51:21.053: Method
'PeasActivatable.deactivate' was not found
------------------------------end here
---------------------------------------------------

Note that it happens with different file formats.
In foreign distros, the version that comes with them – that changes
depending on the distro - runs normally.

Here are the otputs for:

These are not problematic.

Totem uses gstreamer, so the decoding of media files depends on the
installed codecs.  In fact, “/bin/totem” is wrapped with two variables
at build time: GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH and GRL_PLUGIN_PATH.

Can you tell us what gstreamer plugins you have installed (these are
packages starting with “gst-”) and what values the GST_* environment
variables have?

With GST_DEBUG=5 (or a lower number) you should also be able to see what
gstreamer plugin is being selected.  Then we could try to narrow the
fault down to a specific plugin and its libraries.

I can't reproduce any segmentation fault, when running with guix shell
--pure totem -- totem' (although in this way I get some popup about
dbus, but that's not a crash).

Closing, please reopen if it's still an issue.
