GNOME Do freezes on About page

[Bill Hansen]

When accessing the "About Do" option, GNOME Do freezes. Both the close& X buttons become inoperable. I have to go to Htop to kill the process.

It initially happened in 0.8.2, so I upgraded to 0.8.3.1 where it happened again. I subsequently restarted but the bug persists.

This seems to happen every time. Here's my terminal output. No terminal messages appeared after I opened the About window.

$ gnome-do

(/usr/lib/gnome-do/Do.exe:8780): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times

(/usr/lib/gnome-do/Do.exe:8780): Wnck-CRITICAL **: wnck_set_client_type got called multiple times.

Could not locate Tomboy on D-Bus. Perhaps it's not running?
^C

After I opened the preferences window, which caused the program to crash, things changed. First, the appearence of GNOME Do was changed, and it did not crash on either of the windows "About" or "Preferences".

It does not happen on Lucid. (0.8.3.1)

This bug also affects me. I'm using gnome-do 0.8.3.1 and Debian Squeeze.

This fix seemed to work okay for me ...

I believe this should be fixed in 0.8.5
