303395 - crash with file-selector using gtk 2.7 and cairo

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Shell Integration, defect)

Description

[Duncan Matthews]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050804 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050804 Firefox/1.0+

firefox will crash when opening the file-selector with GTK+-2.7 and cairo, every
time.
Assert fails in cairo when checking for a valid image type:

firefox-bin: cairo-xlib-surface.c:1883: _xlib_glyphset_cache_create_entry:
Assertion `NOT_REACHED' failed.
/usr/lib/firefox/run-mozilla.sh: line 131:  9954 Aborted       "$prog" ${1+"$@"}

This has only happened with firefox, so I don't think it's a GTK or cairo bug

System is Fedora Core 4
Mozilla 1.7.11 works properly, but it was compiled for FC4, which uses gcc4, and
firefox is standard build using gcc3. I don't know if that is relevant

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.use any method in firefox to open the file-selector dialogue
2.CRASH!!!
3.

I can confirm this bug. This happens exactly the same way, on system running
Gentoo, with latest Firefox trunk and latest GTK 2.7.5/Cairo-0.6.0 releases

I see the same thing on Fedora Core Rawhide however this crash does *not* happen
with the Rawhide Firefox release, only with the nightly builds.

Chris, can you help us look into this?

Attachment: Screenshot of "Open File..." dialog

After todays Rawhide update which contained cairo-0.9.2, pango-1.9.1 and
gtk2-2.8.0 Firefox stopped crashing and instead shows the dialogs without text
(as seen in the attached screenshot).

After updating to todays Rawhide this works for me.
(cairo-1.0.0, pango-1.10.0, gtk2-2.8.0)
