Simply rebuilding 0.9.14 for Fedora made it crash for multiple users after hitting stable updates repo too quickly. Building the snapshot may have fixed the crash due to upstream changes, but a crash in sqlite3 in Oct 2014 could be a new problem, couldn't it? Bugzilla doesn't give any hint about whether such issues are forwarded or compared with upstream changelogs. Users trying to delete local sqlite db files is kinda a brute-force way to fight such problems. > http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~zeitgeist/zeitgeist/trunk-freedesktop/changes/ > https://answers.launchpad.net/zeitgeist/+question/260500 Odd. They consider it mature. Even more reason to communicate with them about the stability problems at Fedora. IOW, their mature product somehow fails here. And there's one fix that has been applied after creating the snapshot, too. > - As far as I quickly glanced at those bugs, some (many?) bugs don't seem > to have happened on direct zeitgeist side, and some (many?) bugs seem to > require GLib knowledge or so, and I doubt reassigning them (to glib2 or so) make > progress... Well, just because it crashed within glib2 does not imply that glib2 is the culprit. The rushed out broken build of zeitgeist resulted in users seeing assertion aborts such as $2 = 0x1127cd0 "GLib:ERROR:gvarianttypeinfo.c:165:g_variant_type_info_check: assertion failed: (info->alignment == 0 || info->alignment == 1 || info->alignment == 3 || info->alignment == 7)" $2 = 0x1ab8ca0 "GLib:ERROR:gvarianttypeinfo.c:186:g_variant_type_info_check: assertion failed: (0 <= index && index < 24)" and the snapshot made those go away.
