Bug Description

[Impact]

A crasher when opening multiple apps when a new desktop file is added to a monitored folder.

[Test Case]

Run multiple apps and switch between the windows of those, while having a new desktop file created in a bamf monitored folder. Crash should not occur with the fixed bamf package.

[Regression Potential]

Should be low: the same commit has been in 12.10 since August, and includes a test suite.

This is already fixed in Ubuntu 12.10, but lacked a proper bug for an SRU.

Hello Timo, or anyone else affected,

Accepted bamf into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bamf/0.2.124.2-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
