[Lazarus] View All a/v

[kapibara via Lazarus]

Hi guys, is this a bug or a problem with my installation: Right-clicking
the component palette, then selecting "View All" results in access
violation.

GTK2, Debian 9 64bit, latest laz trunk and FPC3.0.4rc1 [2017/08/05] for
x86_64

It works here. Can you open the Component List from View menu or by
shortcut Ctrl-Alt-P?
Could you provide a debugger backtrace.

No, the Component List could not be opened with neither Ctrl+Alt+P nor
shortcut.

I'm not much of a debugger, but opened lazarus.lpi in Lazarus IDE and
set a breakpoint for DoShowComponentList. When Lazarus started from Run
(without RunLazarus), it used a fresh set of config files and lo and
behold, no a/v anymore. So it is the installation, and no bug. If
there's no simple trick to fix the config, I just do a re-install.

No, you must delete or rename the config directory (~/.lazarus)
instead if the problem is there. The installation itself is OK.
Reinstallation does not affect the local configuration.

I have no idea what configuration setting could cause such an error.
The config format was changed a lot when the configurable desktops
were introduced. Maybe some leftover setting from before that time can
trigger an error. I don't know.
You probably need to start with a clean configuration and adjust the
needed settings + install needed packages.

The a/v began after an SVN update so you are most likely right. Thanks
for help.

Update: After installing newest RX lib, the a/v on View Components
returned. But uninstalling RX made View All components work again. So I
guess the problem lies within RX package?

Right-clicking the component palette, then selecting "View All"
results in access violation.
