Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Gnu Radio Companion (GRC) 0.69 experience

[Josh Blum]

The error seems to come from gtk.main and not from the GRC source 
itself. Perhaps this is the result of a race condition (in grc) between 
the the main thread and the thread waiting on the flow graph to finish.

->By clicking the kill button, the waiting thread finishes by calling 
the very same method that handles the "kill button" press. Perhaps in 
all the ruckus, some gtk functions get called by 2 threads at once, and 
eventually gtk gets upset and dies/crashes...

I committed a fix for this in the GRC trunk. Can somebody with this 
issue try out the trunk fix and let me know?
