Hi all,
When I insert a long url in my GTalk account to a GTalk contact it crashes
instantly my pidgin with this error :
{{{
The program 'pidgin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
(Details: serial 29741 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)
}}}
Just for tests I try to insert a "data" link like
'''data:text/html;base64,{the data in base64}'''. The link is more that
6000 chars.
I try to repeat this error and unfortunately it made my pidgin crashes
each time.
The error don't occurred in a jabber account but only if I talk on GTalk
but my contact can't see the link because it's too long (I presume GTalk
is more restrict for that).
I use Pidgin 2.6.2 (libpurple 2.6.2) on an updated Ubuntu 9.10.
Best regards,
gren
