Hi not sure if this is the same bug as only gedit appears to be crashing. Should I report a seperate bug?
When I changed /desktop/gnome/interface/file_chooser_backend key value to gnome-vfs the crash still occured. However on installing gvfs-dbgsym libglib2.0-0-dbgsym libgtk2.0-0-dbgsym the crashes appear to have stoped. However on running $sudo gedit I get this error message.

$ sudo gedit
[sudo] password for visitor:

gedit still works though. I've attached the valgrind log for $gedit but valgrind wont run with $sudo gedit get error

$ G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log sudo gedit
