[5.3.0a1r2] EPGP Addon breaks Carbonite Quest tracker

[Lolaan]

5.3.0 Alpha 1 R2

I noticed a couple other threads mentioning quest tracker problems. I've tracked my specific problem down to the EPGP addon ( http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/epgp-dkp-reloaded ). Hopefully all the following information will help you track down the bug.

- The quest tracker will not update beyond the initial load in (whatever quests are there when I load in stay there).
- I can track individual quests that are there after a fresh ui reload (the white circle), but the quest data for them won't update and no new quests will show up in the tracker. Auto-track also does not function
- The tracker will also keep showing these quests even while minimized. Anything quest related still shows up on the map (the area the quest is in, where to turn it in, etc.)
- Its just the quest tracker that seems to be "frozen."
- There's no lua error.

Seems to be related to LibGuildStorage-1.2.lua (and LibDebug-1.0.lua but I think that's just because LibGuildStorage doesn't function without it) because I can comment out all but those two in the epgp.toc and still have it break the quest tracker.

I can easily get around this by simply turning off epgp except for raids (I'm the master looter so I have to have it on for that) but a fix would be nice, and hopefully by fixing this you might also be able to solve some of the other quest tracker problems I've seen around.

I wonder if the problem in this particular case isn't with EPGP, or the libraries you mentioned. If so, the person to fix the problem is not Rythal. You're right though that if the problem is with Carbonite, a fix to this may fix others' problems too.

That's certainly possible that somehow that library is interfering with Carbonite.Quest's function and it is what will require the change as opposed to Carbonite. If that turns out to be the case, I'll be more than happy to open a ticket over there (or Rytahl can as he can probably tell em better where the problem is if he finds it). However, since the broken functionality is on Carbonite's end, I figured this would be the place to start.

This may well explain my problems!!

I use EPGP for my guild and have all of the same symptoms - aswell as my quest tracker being stuck "open" (cant minimise it but can move it)


If there is something we can do to test or debug, please just let us know!!

as an update on this, I was able to find out why it happens after it started happening with TSM aswell, and I just submitted a ticket with the team responsible for it so hopefully they can fix it up.

For those curious, the addons are calling debugprofilestart() which causes a global reset of the debug timers. Carbonite uses those timers in the quest window to say how often an update can occur instead of trying to redraw several times a second.

this solve my problems I turn out EPGP and carbonite start working
