Shutter crashes when virtualbox starts

[Gerhard Radatz]

Shutter 0.90 Rev.1252 still shows a long existing bug: It always crashes when I start virtualbox.
This sometimes happens with starting other applications, too - but with virtualbox it is always reproducible.

My system: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS

Could you please start it from within a terminal and post the terminal output during the crash?

I got this output:

shutter --min_at_startup &
~$
~$ **
Gtk:ERROR:/build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.24.10/gtk/gtkfilesystemmodel.c:746:gtk_file_system_model_sort: assertion failed: (r == n_visible_rows)

Apparently, shutter does not crash predictably again if it is restarted. Sometimes it happens to crash, sometimes it does not.

This seems to be a case of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/583056 Looks like it cannot be fixed from within Shutter, but rather in GTK itself.
