Description

pidgin crashes when typing any key if it is started after orca.

steps to reproduce :

1. open orca
2. open pidgin
3. wait for orca to say that pidgin is opened
4. type any key

The AppArmor profile that needs to be fixed lives in https://launchpad.net/apparmor-profiles.

Skills needed: AppArmor basics, contributing a merge request upstream on Launchpad with bzr.

Can you please check if there’s any related AppArmor denial in the logs?

sorry, I forgot about that, there are, indeed apparmor denials in the logs :

in Tails 2.0 but no more crash when following the steps described originally.

intrigeri: shall we close this?

  • Status changed from Confirmed to Resolved
  • Assignee deleted (intrigeri)
  • Target version set to Tails_2.0
  • % Done changed from 0 to 100

No idea why my opinion is required on the “shall we close the ticket about a bug once it is fixed” topic, but closing, then.
