Maverick.
Freeciv-server version 2.2.1-1ubuntu1.
No idea what happened. Freeciv just decided to crash when I clicked something with mouse.

Hi Jukka,
Two questions;
Firstly: Does this still happen to you, or was it once off?

If it still happens, could you attach the game file that caused freeciv to crash
thanks,
kk

From the backtraces posted here, this looks like it could have been http://gna.org/bugs/?16100, fixed in 2.2.3. That bug was definitely in 2.2.1.

Hi,
Do you still experience this problem running freeciv?

[Jacob Nevins (0jacobnk-ulp)]

No new ticket activity in years; as previously described, backtrace looks like a bug we fixed upstream in 2.2.3 whose fix has thus been in Ubuntu for years (all supported versions of Ubuntu Freeciv postdate the fix).
Don't see any value in keeping this ticket open, so I suggest it's closed as fixed.

Fixed a ling time ago.
