Ah great, thanks, working perfectly on recent Debian testing now ;D

@Campbell Barton (campbellbarton) think that one is for you, crash happens in HUD-related code:

Meh, this was a duplicate of some other task actually, done since weeks ;)

@Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk) ah, nice finding of original faulty commit ;)

This will fix that case, yes, but then you can find another broken one when hitting the 256 limit. We need to check/truncate the string properly here (and warn about it).

I am sorry, but I am assuming there's a mistake.

Eh, this was done several weeks ago actually :P

Thanks for the report, but that's actually yet another great example of how bad it can be to roll into the darkest black magic bathing the whole proxy code.

@Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk) yes, will do that for now. In theory, we could modify/update object_deform.c's BKE_object_defgroup_remap_update_users(), but this would probably not work in all cases, and force it to loop over whole Main list of objects... :/

Afaik no critical issue remain here, tool is essentially working, further bugs can be handled through general process.

issue is in OpenGL/xXinitThread thingy, @Clément Foucault (fclem) not sure whether you already fixed it?

PS: please make one report per issue, the apply transform is something else ;)

OK, so this is actually COW-related issue, present since even before March when starting blender with it enabled....

Arg... This is a hairy mess :/

Am not happy with re-introducing such buggy behavior, but on the other hand there is not other way I can think of to get same effect, and NPR often relies on buggy/incorrect behaviors anyway, so...
