Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2012-08-02 00:55:33 UTC
Thomas, looks like the regression is still there ... Actually, I did not see an API break in the commits, so it is a different bug, maybe we need valgrind logs to find out why the decoration isn't initialized correctly, and causes crashes whenever information is queried (font, etc., see other backtraces).

Comment 3 Thomas Lübking 2012-08-02 18:09:54 UTC
I "accidentally" removed exported functions and classes (from the original tabbin implementation) - that is not ABI stable.
I however re-added them (as stubs, but not NULL)

For everything < 4.9.0 and in the kcm /only/ there's a chance for a dangeling factory pointer in the preview ( https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/105721/ ) but that should randomly affect *all* decos while atm. it only seems to hit 3rd party ones (including oc. those which are binary incompatible for sure (using instable API))

Also i've skulpture installed and just installed dekorator - w/o any issues.
Still smells like ABI to me...

What's interesting though, is that Mirza (bug #301646) has a bunch of old decos like redmond etc. installed which are no longer shipped with kwin since i think 4.8 and that do NOT seem to raise this issue.

> that do NOT seem to raise this issue

Those other decorations don't try to use the options.
Comment 6 Thomas Lübking 2012-08-02 19:47:32 UTC
of course they did:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kde-workspace/repository/revisions/v4.5.0/entry/kwin/clients/redmond/redmond.cpp

more important is that this option call is via KDecoration::createMainWidget() which about every decoration should call at a time.

I had rather guessed that they'd be guarded through KCommonDecoration, but Skulpture uses it as well ...

The problem was in my case the following file:
/usr/lib/kde4/kwin3deKorator.so  after deleting the file everything worked
again.  This was the case on two different computers.

Comment 10 Thomas Lübking 2012-08-04 14:25:44 UTC
Yes, we know that it's ABI compatibility with 3rd party decorations (just recompiling the decoration or having your distro do so would do as well)

The remaining issue is "what actually breaks the ABI" - see bug #301646
