  • Bug#264955: mozplugger: upgrade from 1.5.1-2 to 1.6.0-1 broke swallow u

    From Yaroslav Halchenko@1:229/2 to All on Wed Aug 11 06:30:11 2004

    Package: mozplugger
    Version: 1.5.1-2
    Severity: serious

    I like very much 'swallow'ing feature that I can have pdf/ps/dvi
    documents opened within tabs. And I love using VNC. Everything was
    working before I upgraded to 1.60 version. Now documents kinda open
    but the canvas of mozilla stays white :-/ And it works fine on one
    machines and doesn't work on one other... it works fine through simple
    ssh tunnel though from the same host. so I suspected difference in X configuration.

    here is the difference between two xdpyinfo's from good (1) and bad
    (2) machines

    What else should I check to report bug with more information?

    Thank you in advance

    Dear Louis,

    This does the trick! Thank you a lot for such a great job.
    I even introduced your new mozplugger-helper.c to old debian's 1.6.0
    version and created a package so I could install it system wide and on different machines

    Now I will just wait so that these changed propagate to official debian
    package

    Thanx again

    P.S. I'm leaving the honor to close the bug under BTS to the debian
    package maintainer

    Sincerely
    Yarik

    Hi,

    I am the maintainer of MozPlugger. I want to fix the bug you reported (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=264955).
    I could not reproduce the bug so I need your help to fix it.

    Could you compile and try the attached version?
    If it still doesn't swallow correctly on one of your remote X server, could you please:

    1) compile MozPlugger 1.6.0 enabling the -DDEBUG flag in the Makefile
    2) install MozPlugger
    3) define the environment variable TMPDIR to /tmp (export TMPDIR=/tmp)
    4) start mozilla from the shell where you defined $TMPDIR
    5) make it fail to swallow a window
    6) send me your file /tmp/mozdebug which will have been created?

    Thanks,

    Louis

    well... probably I would do unnecessary job and jump ahead too much but
    here is the diff between 1.6.0 and 1.6.1a which I received from Louis.

    What was the change in the new version?

    I apparently fixed the bug doing the XReparentWindow() multiple times in
    a loop as it was in the previous versions.

    I also changed the default string matching used with swallow() from strcasecmp() to strncasecmp() to make Xpdf and Ted work without having
    to modify the rc file from the one of the version 1.6.0.
