beagle-search crashes when selecting a gaim conversation

[Andrew Conkling]

Binary package hint: beagle

If I get results in beagle-search for a conversation, say in Gaim, clicking on it makes beagle-search just disappear. Turns out it's crashing.

Same behavior--if not the same cause--here: http://www.mail-archive.com/dashboard-hackers%40gnome.org/msg03227.html

Unfortunately, I'm not able to reproduce a backtrace in gdb:

Program exited with code 01.
(gdb) bt
No stack.
(gdb) mono_backtrace 15
No registers.

(mono_backtrace comes from http://www.mono-project.com/Debugging#Debugging_with_GDB.)

The solution here is not gdb, since beagle runs inside of a managed system called mono, could you just run beagle-search from the command line, and observe the crash. Then could you also attach the relivent logs from ~/.beagle/Logs ?

Well, I've been able to run Banshee through gdb with some useful results, so I had assumed the same with Beagle. (Did you see the Mono link in my original post?)

Anyhow, two file attachments are forthcoming.

Debug output on console from beagle-search.

All I did was to search for "network manager" (sans quotes) then click on an IM conversation.

looks like a race case in the FS, or empty files, not much we can do beyond catch an release.

[Kevin Kubasik (kkubasik)]

I'm assuming that it was marked fix committed so long ago, and hasn't heard a new complaint, it was fixed.

I'm having the same problem as listed above. I assume that it's reappeared from last year. I've looked at the attached links as well and I think it's the same problem. Is there anything that can be done apart from not clicking on IM conversations?
I've attached the error output.
