Two failures after a recent Fedora 20 update...

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm kind of at a loss here.  I recently (yesterday, May 12) updated my
Fedora 20 laptop (originally a fresh install of F20 a couple of months
ago, no update from previous rev).  I had previously updated it on April
30, less that 2 weeks ago.  Now two critical applications, liferea and
evolution, are failing catastrophically in a very similar manner.

For reference - I run XFCE with the Enlightenment 0.16 Window Manager.
I run 6 virtual desktops, each of which are 4 screen viewports wide by 3
high.  Don't ask why, just understand they are need and used...  I don't
think that's a factor.  Gnome3 is not an option and it's abject lack of
performance (and viewports within desktops) would be prohibitive.

Both apps segfault and have OpenJDK messages just after the backtrace
and before the segfault message...

This is from evolution:

I get very similar results from liferea.  Initial bitching seems to be
about Javascript and it ends with a java version, OpenJDK messages and a
segfault and core dump.

With Evolution, I got it to work for a while by removing all
of .local/share/evolution .cache/evolution and .config/evolution and
then restarting it.  After many many hours of downloading my information
from my imap servers (I have several hundred folders and multiple
sites), it was running again.  Next time I had to close it and restart,
it hurled chunks again.  Screwed...

Liferea has been similar.  It won't start with my old subscription list.
So, I eliminated .local/share/liferea .cache/liferea and .config/liferea
and and restarted.  But...  The moment I touch any subscription to look
at the articles, it crashes with an error very similar to what's above.
ForGetAboutIt when it comes to importing an old list.

None of Liferea, Evolution, or OpenJDK were updated between April 30 and
May 12.

A Bugzilla has been opened on the Liferea problem and the auto ABRT
report has been sent on Evolution.  I'm having to resort to an (up to
date) tower that's running Fedora 19 and afraid to update it to Fedora
20 as this point.

Anyone have any idea what the hell has gone wrong here and what I might
do to work around it?

Regards,
Mike
