Thanks for your issue report.

Can you repeat the cash? Does the crash generate a crash report? If so would you please run

apport-retrace -d [filename]

and resubmit it. Information can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport Apport-retrace -d will add many of the debug symbols necessary to get to the bottom of this problem.

Thanks
David

I experienced the same problem, on the apple.com site.
I have the crash report, but apport-retrace -d crashed with:
