[Bug 626379] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in g_main_context_dispatch()

[Martin Pitt]

What is to be uploaded here? Ari's branch or Krzysztof's debdiff? Please
get it uploaded, so that it can be SRU processed, this looks okay for
SRU.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

I have reproduced this report through gdb. This is the same bug as bug 533432. During edit any image in kolourpaint4, gnome style is broken - gnome-settings-daemon.

TEST CASE:

1) Run kolourpaint4 on Gnome;
2) Edit any image file -> copy/paste from clipboard + cut
3) After some minutes, Gnome is going to very old theme - see attachment.
