bit editor causes calculator to crash after 2nd bit change.

[Tom Bresson]

Binary package hint: gcalctool

Trying to use the biteditor in the gcalctool, after clicking on the second bit (any pattern) the calculator will crash.

Trailing Zeros must be enabled for this crash to occur.

To Reproduce:
-Launch gcalctool
-Enable Scientific Mode
-Switch to Binary Mode
-Enable Trailing Zeros
-Enable bit editor
-Switch more than 2 bits

There are a few other methods to reproduce this bug, but the bug can be reproduced by switching the options in a way so that gcalctool allows for the bit editor to be active while trailing zeros are enabled. This seems to cause the crash to occur every time.

Must be a bug with the bit editor too, because the bit editor won't be enabled with trailing zeros enabled, until you close and open the calculator and switch the Trailing Zero state. Output from the terminal is listed below.

[tom@tom-laptop:~]$ gcalctool (02-05 09:13)

The crash isn't reproducible here, please report it with apport with the following instructions:

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.
