Description Shlomi Fish 2016-05-21 21:16:40 CEST 
Description of problem:

in a new UNIX user account, a new profile and when running on JWM , firefox on mgav6 when configured (Edit -> Preferences -> General -> Always ask me where to save files) crashes after saving a file under a new name several times such as the latest release of yui3 - https://github.com/yui/yui3/releases . It doesn't happen with the latest esr tar.bz2 x86-64 binary distribution from getfirefox.com.

Assigning to all packagers collectively, since there is no maintainer for this package.

I get the same issue, Firefox crashes when trying to save a patch, e.g. https://github.com/lutris/lutris/commit/ebbf72fc5dbce2cb7943f895a4ef0467121612a6.patch

It's pretty recent, I was not having those issues before today.

Hi all!

Per some insights from Luigi12 on #mageia-dev, I tried downgrading gtk+3.0 to 3.20.4 (by building the RPMs and rpm -Uvh --force) and it seems to have fixed the problem. I should also note that upgrading firefox to 45.1.1esr did not help with that.

With gtk+3.0-3.20.5-1.mga6 it seems that gedit crashes too after I press the save button and enter a filename in the file chooser. So it seems to be a global gtk+3.0 bug.

Source RPM: firefox-45.1.0-3.mga6.src.rpm => gtk+3.0-3.20.5-1.mga6.src.rpm

Hey all,

I know that this is a Mageia bug, but I just want to leave a note for record that I've reproduced the condition identically on Fedora 24 by pulling gtk3-3.20.5 from Fedora Koji. Rolling back to gtk3-3.20.4 fixes this issue.

Olav pushed gtk+3.0-3.20.6 which should fix the issue, based on the changelog in http://osdir.com/ml/commits.gnome/2016-05/msg04900.html

Please test if it fixes the bug for us.
