Thank you for your bug report. Since your stacktrace looked complete, I reported your bug to the developers of the software. You can track it and make comments at: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=574739

Has this ever happend again? If yes, can you try to figure out what steps it need to trigger the crash? Thanks in advance.

It seems to have 'gone-away' - probably a result of one of the countless updates over the intervening period. I'll keep an eye on it and update status here once we get into April so the report can be voided if the issue no longer occurs.

Spoke too soon! Just had it happen again. The apport report is bug #343473 which I've marked as a duplicate.

Thanks. Setting this to "triaged" and waiting for upstream do process the trace.
