Thanks for your bug report. Could you please try to obtain a debug
backtrace by following the instructions on
       http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash.
This will greatly aid us in tracking down your problem.

[amtrack (amtrack)]

Hi,
i just tried to follow the instructions you gave to me,
but this doesn't work for dapper.

It depends on yelp 2.16.1.
My version is 2.14.3.
Is there a package for dapper, too?

thanks for your effort!

Don't bother for the backtrace, it looks similar to bug #71345, marking as duplicate

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

if you want to get a backtrace anyway installing libgtk2.0-0-dbg should be a good start and it's available from dapper

[amtrack (amtrack)]

Backtrace is now with libgtk2.0-0-dbg installed.

Steps to reproduce bug is updated.

I can't see any similarity to <a href="/bugs/71345" title="GTK applications crash sometime with gdk_events functions to the backtrace">bug #71345</a>

Merry Christmas!

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the crash happens to gdk functions like for the other bug. The backtrace is not really useful though. Could you try getting a valgring log as described on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind?
