fix segfault #72

Closed technic closed 5 years ago

technic commented 9 years ago

Hi! Since my ArchLinux update I started getting segfaults... My system is the following: Skype 4.3.0.37 Qt 4.8.7 Xorg 1.17.1 KDE 5.3.2

So I did some digging with gdb and I want to show you my fix. I don't know if it is the correct way to fix the problem, but it works.

I'm not sure that it won't break something else. You've removed the code that ensures initialization when Skype tries to show something on the screen (contact list, chats, etc). That may cause some windows to be parentless.

Yes, you are right, after this patch skypetab crashes from time to time. But I don't know how to fix this correctly.

No longer relevant.
