random traceback (set_transient_for)

[sascha_silbe]

Also filed as Debian bug ​#511947.

Under unknown circumstances (I've triggered this several times, but usually as part of a longer session, so I don't know
how exactly), the following traceback (with no other apparent effect) appears:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sugar/graphics/animator.py", line 66, in _next_frame_cb
    animation.do_frame(current_time, self._duration, self._easing)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sugar/graphics/animator.py", line 92, in do_frame
    self.next_frame(frame)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sugar/graphics/palette.py", line 711, in next_frame
    self._palette._show()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sugar/graphics/palette.py", line 552, in _show
    self.set_transient_for(self._invoker.get_toplevel())
TypeError: parent should be a GtkWindow or None

Custom debug output provided the following info:

calling self.set_transient_for(<ActivityButton object at 0x9f81aa4 (SugarRadioToolButton at 0x9781c38)>)

Will try to determine "self" as well.

Hi Sascha, thanks for the report – any luck narrowing this traceback down (is there a testcase we should try to reproduce it with)?

Shall we close 0.82 bugs? We don't support it any more.
