16:51:31 <Robert847> Hi. I am trying to do a backtrace of an instance of GnuCsh that crashes with a segfault in Ubuntu 22.04. I am stuck trying to figure out if the debuginfod server is loading a file that is missing specific gnucash symbols or not loading anything at all
16:53:24 <Robert847> I suspect the latter, as I don't get the question whether it should download a file
16:54:57 <Simon> I'm checking to see if there's a debug packet for that
16:55:00 <Simon> package*
16:55:02 * Simon sighs
16:55:55 <Robert847> I do have a virtual machine running Linux Mint 21.1 if debuginfod works better there, or I could posibly even try a completely different Linux if need be
16:58:29 <Simon> there is a gnucash-dbgsym package
16:58:39 <Simon> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debug%20Symbol%20Packages
16:59:10 <Simon> if you follow the steps in "Getting -dbgsym.ddeb packages" you can then use "apt install gnucash-dbgsym" (as root) to install the debug symbols
16:59:15 <Robert847> of course my first choice would be to stay in the Ubuntu machine that has all the other stuff that I use regularly
17:00:13 <Robert847> Simon, thank you. I will try that.

17:19:00 *** icarus_79 has quit IRC
17:22:23 <Robert847> I was already trying to follow the instructions there to get the automatic download, but I was not getting very far with that
17:28:30 <Robert847> I need to figure out how to construct that /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ddebs.list for my machine
17:30:14 <Robert847> I do not have a working knowledge of Bash

18:32:43 <Robert847> I wish I saw your help before I tried and created a very similar file. However, my file made a mess in the apt sources, which I think I need to clean up first. whatever subtle difference my try had it complained that @page { size: 8.5in 11in; margin: 0.79in } pre { background: transparent } pre.western { font-family: "Liberation Mono", monospace; font-size: 10pt } pre.cjk { font-family: "Noto Sans Mono CJK SC", mon

18:32:46 <Robert847> pository creation and user configuration details.
18:33:25 <Robert847> sorry about the extra noise
18:38:28 <Robert847> I think I can just edit the sources in synaptic
18:39:20 *** icarus_79 has joined #gnucash
18:42:20 *** icarus_79 has quit IRC
18:47:14 <Robert847> After getting the sources correct and updating through synaptic there were no updates required for debuginfod related files. I think I need to do more.
18:52:46 <Robert847> wait! there is a star symbol in synaptic next to debuginfod-dbgsym and libdebuginfod1-dbgsym. I bet that I need to install them
18:58:32 *** icarus_79 has joined #gnucash
18:59:51 <Robert847> still more work needed. gdb -q gnucash resulted in Reading symbols from gnucash...
18:59:51 <Robert847> (No debugging symbols found in gnucash)
18:59:51 <Robert847> (gdb) Quit

21:39:25 <Robert847> Aha! I needed to install the gnucash debug symbols file gnucash-dbgsym and python debug file python3-gnucash-dbgsym. Now I can get a backtrace with at least some symbols. I need to repeat the experiment including a complete output file .

21:57:16 <bluesanta> @tell jralls, thank you for the info about dconf-gsettings-backend, gsettings, and dconf contributing to the issue where my settings don't seem to save. It's odd that this is coming up, because I am dealing with a separate issue that is related to dconf and gsettings. I am trying to write a script that updates gsettings desktop background picture, but I can only do the update through
21:57:16 <gncbot> bluesanta: The operation succeeded.
21:57:17 <gncbot> bluesanta: Sent 1 day, 8 hours, and 53 minutes ago: <jralls> those iitems are stored using GSettings which in turn uses dconf, so make sure that you have that and dconf-gsettings-backend installed. That should have been done for you when you installed GnuCash so you might want to file a bug with Ubuntu about that.
21:57:18 <bluesanta> the dconf gui app. If I try to do it using the command line, gsettings set gnome.desktop.org.backround picture-uri-dark 'file:///insert/file/path', nothing happens. There was some funny business at first wherein I couldn't even use the dconf app to change the desktop background pic until I did chmod a+x to the ~/.conf/dconf folder and some other things that I forget off the top of my
21:57:20 <bluesanta> head. I wonder if all this could be related...

22:05:09 <Robert847> I now have a full backtrace file named gdb-gnucash_2023102001.txt. The meaty part begins on line 57 with Thread 1 "gnucash" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

22:14:18 <Robert847> is jralls here?
22:16:14 <Robert847> is there a good time to find him here?
22:31:52 <bluesanta> Robert847, I assume he'll check the logs later. I tried the @ tell command to see what it does. I just saw him use it in the last message he sent to me.
22:45:54 <bluesanta> @jralls I filed bug 799107
22:45:54 <gncbot> bluesanta: Error: "jralls" is not a valid command.
22:46:05 <bluesanta> I'm excited to get moved from Quicken to GnuCash!
