Re: Possible Tk segfault bugfix

thank you very much for this article.

i couldn't test it so far, and i have to wail till next year, but i'm pretty sure that it's exactly the problem that i experienced (tk script crashing when i open a gnome application; after i updated to ubuntu 'breezy')

when i realized the problem i searched for other bug reports but found only one in a closed forum where i couldn't post without an account.

Your welcome. Actually it was a fellow named Ben Crowell, who solved it. He saw the bug on Ubuntu and complained in comp.lang.perl.tk. I mentioned that I saw this bug myself, and pointed him to my debug output. He came up with the fix. Currently Nick Ing-Simmons is looking at it, and will probably issue a patch. I also am glad it's fixed. I was getting awfully tired of having to restart my Tk apps. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. flash japh	[reply]
