Bug Description

Binary package hint: jhbuild

You can trigger this by setting the 'moduleset' variable to an invalid value in ~/.jhbuildrc. I had forgotten to use [ ] around comma separated-list of sources, i.e.:
moduleset = 'http://something', http://somethingelse

I got a Python error about tuples and strings, and then the crash.

Thank you for helping with making Ubuntu and JHBuild better by reporting this bug. Thanks a lot as well for reporting this upstream.
I'm marking this bug as triaged. Since it was first included in hardy, jhbuild has not been updated; it even still uses an SVN revision number in its version string, even though GNOME has already been using Git for a while.
It should be updated.
