G2 Random block should warn that it does not work with less than 3 nodes instead of causing an error

I put two g2 blocks:G2 Random and G2 Alphabar on frontpage panel (Add content -> Miscellaneous).

Now I've got this error:

Warning: mt_rand() [function.mt-rand]: max(-1) is smaller than min(0) in g2\random() (line 1175 of Z:\home\paris9.kz\www\emploi\sites\all\modules\g2\g2.module).
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in g2\random() (line 1201 of Z:\home\paris9.kz\www\emploi\sites\all\modules\g2\g2.module).
EntityMalformedException: Missing bundle property on entity of type node. in entity_extract_ids() (line 7389 of Z:\home\paris9.kz\www\emploi\includes\common.inc).

Problem seems to be with Random block.

    Still happens on D10/D9 with a different location:

    • with just two nodes, if the stored random and the WOTD are different
    • with just one node, if either the stored random the WOTD are that node
    • with no node (d'oh)

    The better UX is probably to just build an empty block and log the issue instead of exposing it to the front user.
