ekiga crashed with SIGSEGV in free()

Binary package hint: ekiga

After making a test call to ekiga.net, I clicked on "quit" from the context menu of the try icon.
Than it crashed.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please try to obtain a valgrind log following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind and attach the file to the bug report. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem.

Unfortunately whe it runs under valgrind it does not segafult.
However, here it the valgrind log.

Without valgrind I am able to make it crash consistently:
1) start ekiga
2) start a call
3) hang up
4) quit

This was very probable fixed with http://git.gnome.org/cgit/ekiga/commit/?h=gnome-2-26&id=9d0263ba6d00cb0273c29620e4d7922ce4009a94 and previous commits.

Hi,

This should be fixed in ubuntu karmic (9.10). Can the reporters test it?

Best regards,
Yannick
