indicator-datetime-preferences crashed with signal 5 in do_pre_parse_initialization()

[Eliah Kagan]

Binary package hint: indicator-datetime

This is bug 788801 with a better stack trace. (See below for information about differences near the top of this trace and the trace in bug 788801.)

[slightly edited original report below]

On a fully updated Oneiric i386 system I performed the steps that had previously produced bug 788801. The crash here is the same crash as in (now duplicate) bug 797146 (which was on the Oneiric i386 20110614 daily-live without debug symbols). This bug supersedes bug 797146, since it has a much better stack trace.

Specifically, I logged in with a unity-2d session and clicked "Time & Date Settings..." in the time/date (calendar) applet menu. This similar crash occurred instead. This crash is a bit strange, since signal 5 is SIGTRAP, which typically occurs only when a program is being actively debugged.

I'm not sure if this should be considered a duplicate of bug 788801 [edit: this is indeed being considered the same as bug 788801]. In that bug, g_logv() called abort(), which triggered abnormal program termination with SIGABRT by calling raise(). In this bug, it appears that the program is terminated within g_logv() with SIGTRAP.
