Thank you for your bug report. Forwarded upstream.

[Gabor Karsay (gabor-karsay)]

Thanks for your report. Did you experience this in a "real" situation with a "real" file that you tried to import? Or did you try to provoke a crash deliberately? I can reproduce this only after creating a symlink that has a file name and points to a directory. If I try to import this file, Feeds applet crashes with the same backtrace. Do you remember the circumstances of your crash, is it reproducable?

[christo91 (christo91)]

Yes. It was in "real" situation with a "real" file. It was only one time and I saw that after last update AWN didn,t start correctly /only one panel from both of them started/.

Thanks for you bug report, a fix has been committed in revisions 1464 and 1465.
