I get a segmentation fault on opening a second pcmanfm instance. I've done a backtace on both, second has nothing.
This is done with pcmanfm-git-20101001-1 on Arch Linux, Awsome Window Manager, this also happens with desktop and daemon modes.

First instance:

same here on latest slackware with glib-2.24.2, still have to try with 2.26.0.

problem seems not to manifest reverting the two commits related to IPC, cc448d7fc14155927423373a91f5ccf1c2254557 and 0c3f71f2360a9878198ecada1e12185de1738c4f.

So I got the patches for those two commits from git

http://pcmanfm.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=pcmanfm/pcmanfm;a=patch;h=cc448d7fc14155927423373a91f5ccf1c2254557

and have done a

patch -p1 -R < 0c3f71f2360a9878198ecada1e12185de1738c4f.patch
patch -p1 -R < cc448d7fc14155927423373a91f5ccf1c2254557.patch

in the latest git snapshot and this way seem to work.

I think I have similar bug. With latest git head I can only open one instance of pcmanfm, the difference is that trying to run the second instance in gdb says that the programme exited normally.

If it's relevant, I have glib-2.26.0.

sorry ahmadsamir, have you tried reverting the two patches as described in my first comment?
that should fix it (I'm using multiple istances now with glib-2.26.0).

I can revert 0c3f71f2360a9878198ecada1e12185de1738c4f cleanly, but not the second commit, some hunks fail. I think if this is going to be fixed then I don't need to waste time reverting the second one manually....

Anyway, I'll try doing that, at least to confirm it's the same issue. :/

OK, confirmed, after reverting those two commits I can start multiple instances of pcmanfm.

I can confirm the bug on pcmanfm-git 20101017 on 64bit ArchLinux, with libfm-git 20101016.
