#16752: File descriptor leak in Pidgin + GStreamer 1.x
----------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: XRevan86 | Owner:
Type: patch | Status: new
Milestone: 2.10.12 | Component: pidgin (gtk)
Version: 3.0.0hg | Keywords: gstreamer
----------------------+--------------------------
As
[http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/GstBus.html
#gst-bus-add-watch documentation] says, in order to remove a bus watch,
watch should return FALSE while bus_call in gtksound.c always returns TRUE
thus keeps itself active.
And so every sound play creates a new instance of bus_call and two new
sockets which causes a file descriptor leak and eventually a segmentation
fault.
