Subject: [webkit-gtk] Segfault rendering to GtkOffscreenWindow (regression
 2.46.1 vs. 2.48.1)
Message-ID: <QBCBT3WT.6INIM2L5.EH3RYJTW@JKT4VYHZ.SHBBGL7A.BYTD5K3O>

After upgrading libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0 on Debian Bookworm from version 2.46.1 (Debian package 2.46.1-2~bpo12+1) to version 2.48.1 (2.48.1-2~deb12u1), code rendering a WebKitWebView into a GtkOffscreenWindow (used for dumping and inspection without a ?real? display) crashes with a Segfault.

A minimal example to reproduce the bug is attached.  In gdb, it produces the following backtrace:

Unfortunately, there seems to be no libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0-dbgsym package, so I cannot tell where the crash actually occurs in libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0.

Running the same code on Trixie with version 2.46.6, a CRITICAL is emitted (both Bookworm versions do not print any messages), but the dumped PNG file is again fine:

<snip>
test at trixie:~/WebkitGTK$ ./sample 
** Message: 19:06:10.878: create window...

(sample:15756): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 19:06:11.365: gdk_window_get_origin: assertion 'GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

** Message: 19:06:12.590: done
** Message: 19:06:12.659: write surface to 'sample.png': 0
</snip>

Upgrading to the Trixie version 2.48.1 again crashes.

The CRITICAL on Trixie might indicate that my code is actually wrong, although it worked perfectly for years meanwhile.  Any insight would be highly appreciated!

TIA, Albrecht.
