Insight dumped core on me

Bug Description

I'm not really sure what happened. I was debugging and Insight dumped core. I don't remember exactly what was going on. I believe I had just set a breakpoint and pressed the button to continue. The debugger hit the breakpoint and stopped. I was getting ready to look around at some local variables, etc. when it dumped core. I had those windows open already (local variables, breakpoints, stack trace). I don't think I actually did anything though.

One other odd thing is that when I try to run the program (GNU make) I get an error dialog saying: "Cannot initialize thread debugging library: generic error". I press OK, and I get this same dialog again. I press OK again, and this time it doesn't come back and my program seems to start OK. GNU make is not a multithreaded app: it doesn't link pthread etc.

My crash occurred clicking yes in the dialog warning I was about to abort a session to load a new program file. I had clicked on the file menu, selected the file and it gave the dialog.

I had not stopped the running of the application being debugged when I loaded the new build of the application of the same name to do another cycle of debugging.

Is this symptom still reproducible in a daily-live image (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/) of jaunty?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. My apologies as I should not have marked this Invalid. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Maverick Meerkat. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
