too much data xcb_xlib_too_much_data_requested

Viewed 2805

A colleague and I are trying to port a C# program from Windows to Linux Mint 16.04 (32-bit) and are getting the error that an "xcb_xlib_too_much_data_requested" assertion failed, specifically:

[xcb] Too much data requested from _XRead
[xcb] This is most likely caused by a broken X extension library
[xcb] Aborting, sorry about that.
cli: ../../src/xcb_io.c:736: _XRead: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_too_much_data_requested' failed.

Can anyone explain what this is about, where it comes from and how to fix it?

I have tried adding mono-reference-assemblies as suggested at the end of https://github.com/pfn/keepasshttp/issues/159, but that didn't fix the problem.

Thanks for thinking about this.

Since "xcb_xlib_too_much_data_requested" refers to xcb, I downloaded the latest version with the shell command

sudo apt-get install xcb

Fixed the problem :-)
