[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#719579: libgvnc-1.0-0: Segmentation fault in glib

[Artem Rusanov]

Package: libgvnc-1.0-0
Version: 0.5.0-3.1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Ucontext coroutine have problems with stability, gthread coroutine is ok.
To reproduce just run following test, in some seconds you will get segfault.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Test to reproduce problem (main.c):
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
#include <vncconnection.h>
#include <glib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

static gboolean
time_handler(VncConnection *conn)

    vnc_connection_open_host(conn, "localhost", "7777");

    return FALSE;

    g_timeout_add(10, (GSourceFunc) time_handler, conn);
}

int main( int argc, char *argv[])
{

  gtk_init(&argc, &argv);

  window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

To build:
gcc `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0 gtk-vnc-1.0` -o test main.c
