Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
In Ubuntu Feisty, when editing a file in emacs (started with “emacs -nw filename”), I attempted to enter a Unicode character using GNOME’s Unicode character entry method—pressing C-S-u and the Unicode code point (in this case, I was attempting to input character 201c, the English open double quote character. I found the bug accidentally (Emacs doesn’t support entry of all Unicode characters like this in the terminal, so my workaround was to create a shortcut in Emacs, “C-c u”, for Unicode character entry; I mistyped and discovered the bug).
Apport has attached numerous items to this bug report. If there is any additionally required information, please let me know.

Thanks for your bug report. The crash looks like a memory corruption. Could you try to get a valgrind log for it? (you can follow the instructions from https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Valgrind for that)
