Description Børre Gaup 2008-12-11 13:31:45 UTC
Version:           4:4.1.80-0ubuntu2~intrepid1~ppa1 (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc version 4.3.2 (Ubuntu 4.3.2-1ubuntu11)  
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I added a bonjour account. After a while kopete crashed. Restarting kopete results in a crash when the bonjour attempts to start.

Comment 4 Tejas Dinkar 2008-12-11 16:36:49 UTC
My Hunch is that the crash was caused due to unresolvable services (on a large network)

I had faced this bug before, but if I tried to connect 3-4 times, it stopped crashing, and I was unable to reproduce since then.

Could you tell me if this is commit did, in fact solve the problem for you?

Comment 6 Tejas Dinkar 2008-12-12 04:31:03 UTC
Erm, sorry. I had assumed you were using trunk.

The functions DNSSD::ServiceBroswer::resolveHostName and DNSSD::ServiceBroswer::getLocalHostName got moved there only recently. (post 4.1.80).

Tell you what, I maintain a tree of this for the fedora project (which does NOT use these recent features of DNSSD). You can get the tarball here
http://tejas.fedorapeople.org/fedora-review/bonjour.tar.gz

It is a snapshot of trunk with all those dnssd patches reverted. Do NOT, however, use the CMakeLists.txt from this tarball. (This build is for making a stand alone plugin).

Could you try using the files from here? (strictly, you will need to replace bonjourcontact.cpp, bonjouraccount.h & cpp and make sure avahi-bonjour.cpp is in your current folder)

New crash log

Fetched the tar ball mentioned in comment #6, moved everything but the CMakeLists.txt files into the the original 4.1.80 directory, made new packages, installed them and ran kopete. Sadly it crashed :(
Comment 8 Børre Gaup 2008-12-12 15:20:02 UTC
I tried to start this version of kopete a second time, and then bonjour worked as it was supposed to. No crashes, a few minutes after I started.
I also started kopete with other users on the same machine, added a bonjour account and no crashes for those users either.
Comment 9 Børre Gaup 2008-12-12 15:21:55 UTC
I also installed the original kopete package again, and no crashes with that either ...
Comment 10 Tejas Dinkar 2008-12-12 16:13:47 UTC
Yeah, as I said. I faced this bug before, and this happened to me also.

This happened to me at the event FOSS.IN when there was a huge number of people on bonjour.

Is there some client that is causing this (somewhere else on the network)?

I'm leaving this bug open. Until I can figure out what's wrong.

Glad it works, and I have someone using the code though :). This is the first bonjour bug (not filed by me :)
Comment 11 Børre Gaup 2008-12-15 10:34:33 UTC
When I started kopete today it crashed again. 
It happened consistantly when a collegue of mine were logged on, and he is connected to our network through a hub (not a switch).
When he logged off, the bonjour plugin worked as it should. When he logged on again (this time kopete was up and running) kopete crashed. This happened with both your changes and the original 4.1.80 kubuntu package. I'm adding the crash logs from both kopete versions.

Comment 14 Tejas Dinkar 2008-12-15 11:50:50 UTC
What instant messenger is he using? Pidgin? Kopete?

Also, can you tell me what hostname he has, and any other details?

This seems more and more like a bug in Qt.

Could you install the debugging packages for qt, and try to give me another backtrace (with either install)?
Comment 15 Manuel Nickschas 2009-02-05 11:46:16 UTC
I can reproduce this with current trunk. Backtrace looks mostly identical, but there is no setRemoteHostName() in mine.

In my case, it is clearly caused by a single client coming online. We are testing this out in our office, and there is only two Linux boxen and a Windows box connected. As soon as the Windows box goes online (he uses Pidgin on both Windows XP and 7), both Kopete instances crash instantly. This can be reproduced every time - both Kopete instance see each other fine, but as soon as Pidgin/Windows goes online, they crash. There is no other machines involved.

Output follows:

Comment 17 Børre Gaup 2009-05-11 17:30:58 UTC
Kopete stills crashes for me.
We are seven collegues on the same net, the others use iChat on Leopard.
The crash only happens when one particular collegue is logged on to his bonjour account.
Comment 18 Børre Gaup 2009-05-11 17:41:38 UTC
Could it be that there is some problem with the glib event loop? 
I read a blog a year ago where a KDE developer had had a problem with that.

By the way, the version info for kopete is:

kopete -v
Qt: 4.5.1
KDE: 4.2.3 (KDE 4.2.3)
Kopete: 0.70.2

This bug seems duplicate of bug 192087 [1], but it wasn't marked, as we can read in #2 [2] there.

That bug was marked as FIXED after commit r1000243 and I suppose it also applies to this bug.

Comment 21 Tejas Dinkar 2009-07-21 20:06:34 UTC
This bug IS a duplicate of the other one, but I didn't mark it as such so I'll get motivation  to solve 2 bugs instead of one.

In any case, the other one wasn't marked as fixed, but POTENTIALLY fixed :P. I'll close it if no one else can reproduce a bug in the near future.

Comment 25 James Hogan 2009-10-12 22:40:45 UTC
SVN commit 1034486 by hogan:

Fix kopete bonjour plugin handling of new contact added to existing metacontact.

When a bonjour contact becomes visible for whom a metacontact already exists, it would try and cast the first contact in the metacontact to BonjourContact even if it was for example a JabberContact, resulting in a segfault.
The fix uses mc->findContact to find the new contact without making assumptions about it's position inside the metacontact.
