gnome-appearance-properties crashed with SIGSEGV in gnome_vfs_uri_unref()

[banangroda]

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

When I dragged an archive containing a file, but the archive was the wrong type (.tar), the appearance preferences window stopped working and crashed after a while.

Thanks for your bug report. This bug has been reported to the developers of the software. You can track it and make comments here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524843

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The bug has been fixed upstream now

[Sébastien Lozé (loze-sebastien)]

This bug isn't fixed at this time. My system is up to date and the appearance properties crash when i want to change my gnome theme.

Best regards,

[Dilney (dilney)]

Same bug here. Only that I get the crash with drag & drop or by opening via "Install..." button if the file is not the right format.

Just got it after dropping a .gz onto the window.

Ummm...

This just occurred in Intrepid w/the latest updates. Should this be a new bug?

[Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson)]

Scott - As this bug is now fixed, you should submit your crash report as a new bug.

Thanks
