"Display threads or programs" crashes

[MariusAlbrecht]

Describe the bug
Disabling the NPROC column ("Display threads or programs" / j shortcut) crashes the cli for me.
Additionally my terminal is kinda broken afterwards (scrolling doesn't work anymore, cursor and input isn't shown anymore, and some other things)

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Start Glances without any ootions
2. Press the key 'j' (shortcut for "Display threads or programs")
3. Freeze for a bit then crash

Expected behavior
n/a

Screenshots
No sreenshot, i have the traceback printed to stderr instead:

You can also pastebin:

• the Glances configuration file is unchanged
• the Glances log file: https://pastebin.com/vzyMF2ns

reinstalling using apt doesnt fix.

Hi @MariusAlbrecht

what do you mean by "disabling the NPROC column" ? Just siwtching from the Threads view to the Programs view make Glances crash ?

Can you try the latest Glances version (avoid using the "old" Glances version provided by Ubuntu):

apt remove glances
cd ~
python3 -m venv
./venv/bin/pip install glances
./venv/bin/glances

[MariusAlbrecht]

The version from pip doesn't have the issue.
But, before trying that I made the following recording to illustrate the issue so have a look if you want to:
