Bug#536399: evolution: drag and drop together with keyring unlock popup locks up X session
Marius Mikucionis
Version: 2.26.1.1-2
Severity: normal
consider the following sequence of events:
1) evolution is started for the first time, it asks for the password to keyring
(presumably to retrieve IMAP password)
2) I enter the password, evolution unlocks the keyring and gets the password
3) evolution opens the mailbox on IMAP
4) I read emails, click reply on one of them and compose a reply
5) after my email is composed, I press control-enter to send it out,
6) evolution puts the message arrives at outgoing folder (probably),
and nothing happens for a few moments
7) I decide to put the original message, that I have replied to,
to a different directory and start dragging it, mouse cursor icon shows that I am dragging.
8) suddenly I get a popup asking to unlock the keyring, presumably for SMTP password,
(which is strange, because the keyring has been unlocked in step 2. Maybe the keyring has
a timeout? Usually I keep evolution open for days)
9) from this moment the whole screen is locked up: the windows are there, they can redraw
themselves and seem fine, but I cannot do anything: the windows focus and keyboard focus is
nowhere, mouse cursor is stuck with dragging and I cannot neither stop dragging nor
I can get rid of the password popup, nor select a different window because the dragging
is in progress. If I release the mouse button, the mouse cursor remains in drag state
no matter what.
The only way I could get out of this deadlock was by switching to console and kill the evolution
process. After evolution is killed, the mouse cursor returned to normal, but the keyring password
popup is still there (which is a bit strange).
