Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate a useful symbolic stack trace). This

Problem started after latest upgrades

[Nathaniel W. Turner (nturner)]

Perhaps a duplicate of bug 969535?

[Alexander Feld (mrshadowtux)]

I got this bug after upgrading from 11.10 to 12.04. It occurs everytime I want to start the Terminal.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

could you open a new bug if that's still an issue since the retracing didn't work on this one?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

stop reopening this bug, it lacks the required info and a new report should be opened
