Bug 96218 – CRITICAL **: void webkit_download_start(WebKitDownload*): assertion `priv->timer == NULL' failed

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WONTFIX
• Component: WebKitGTK

[Paul Menzel]

With either Debian or Fedora 17 using Midori (0.4.6) with libwebkitgtk (1.8.1-3.1) downloading a file (for example PDF) the following message is printed to the console.

    ** (midori4:4274): CRITICAL **: void webkit_download_start(WebKitDownload*): assertion `priv->timer == NULL' failed

It does not matter if the file is opened or saved, the warning does always appear.

Looking at `webkitdownload.cpp` [1] I do not see when

    static void webkit_download_init(WebKitDownload* download) {}

is called and grepping through the source it looks like it never is.

Looks like webkit_download_start() is being called twice, maybe it's a
bug in Midori?

That function is called when the WebKitDownload object is created.

The code that calls that function is generated from the G_DEFINE_TYPE
macro in that file.
