Timeshift-gtk dumps core

Oldhabbits · 23 September 2022 07:07

Hello friends, after today’s unstable updates, Timeshift-gtk is dumping its core when trying to restore previous backup. I suspect it is the update on glib2 that’s causing it. Never had any problem with it until today. The CLI version of Timeshift works fine…

After downgrading glib2 to previous version 1.73-3, Timeshift-gtk is working again !
Maybe Timeshift needs to be rebuild against the new glib2-library ?
Cheers,
Eddy

Jaypee · 23 September 2022 09:59

I cannot confirm this issue in the Unstable branch, at least.

You mean 2.73-3, I presume?

Oldhabbits · 23 September 2022 12:28

Yes, version 2.73-3 indeed ! Sorry for the typo…

stasadev · 23 September 2022 12:33

I confirm this issue in testing branch. I got a core dump on snapshot creation. Downgrading glib2 from 2.74.0-1 to 2.72.3-3 helps.

And I don’t know where you see 2.73-3, I see only 2.72.3-3

I tried to rebuild it myself from AUR, but without success, the same core dump.

Jaypee · 23 September 2022 12:49

Unstable and Testing seems to be at 2.74.0-1 now.

Oldhabbits · 23 September 2022 14:21

At my age, my short time memory kinda sucks, so it seems

[eddy@imac ~]$ pamac info glib2
Naam                         : glib2
Versie                       : 2.72.3-3
Omschrijving                 : Low level core library

For the moment, I held back the upgrade to 2.74.0-1…

Cheers,
Eddy

Locutus · 23 September 2022 16:20

Does this fix the issue?

Oldhabbits · 23 September 2022 16:41

No, 2.74.0-1 causes the issue !

Locutus · 23 September 2022 17:24

I’m assuming not for everyone cause I just did a backup without any issues.

brahma · 24 September 2022 12:40

confirm, wanted to create a snapshot it crashed … im on testing branch

Jaypee · 24 September 2022 13:48

I don’t know how I managed to miss the point that this was about the GUI
Yes, I also get core dumps if I try to create or restore snapshot via GUI. CLI is working fine.

I see no issues open at Timeshift’s issue tracker, if this even is an issue for them to fix.

koshikas · 24 September 2022 16:40

timeshift is a manjaro specific custom package. it depends on libgee which in turn depends on glib2. a recompiling of the timeshift package maybe necessary. @Yochanan please advise

Yochanan · 24 September 2022 17:11

I can’t reproduce it on two machines on the unstable branch. I rebuilt it, anyway. Try 22.06.5-2 coming along shortly.

Jaypee · 24 September 2022 17:29

If this is another issue with C locale on another package, I swear

Jaypee · 25 September 2022 09:29

Didn’t help, unfortunately.

Oldhabbits · 25 September 2022 09:42

Nope, same crash…

There’s an issue opened by Arch users here now:

Critical error when copying.

**Describe the bug** There are bugs in the operation of the program. First, it …stopped showing the remaining time, just three question marks. Now the GUI crashes when copying and deleting, but the process itself on the system continues. **To Reproduce** Steps to reproduce the behavior: 1. I open the program. 2. I start copying rsync. 3. After a while, the program window closes abruptly. It also says "???" instead of the remaining time. **Expected behavior** I expected the copying to be successful. Log file: https://pastebin.com/FtQ4aqqE [Timeshift log.txt](https://github.com/teejee2008/timeshift/files/9639037/Timeshift.log.txt) **System:** - Arch Linux - KDE Plasma - Application Version 22.06.5

Have to ask how often are any of us actually in the GUI for Timeshift? I apologize if I have this wrong but doing updates via the Terminal and having auto-snap create a snapshot or manually running Timeshift from the Terminal and creating a snapshot still works fine, and those snapshots can be used from grub or the live environment without issue, right? To me not being able to use the GUI short term isn’t a big deal.
