gnome-panel crashed with SIGSEGV in weather_info_abort()

[jken146]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

gnome-panel crashes when I try to change the temperature units from 'Default'. On a second attempt I was in fact able to change to C, but gnome-panel crashed anyway.

Was using Clock 2.22.0 in Hardy beta.

thanks for your report, do you get the same with latest updates (gnome-panel 2.22.1) ?

[jken146 (jonathankennedy146)]

Yes. The temperature setting changes but gnome-panel crashes immediately and recovers quickly. Changing wind speed units also has this effect, although it didn't the first time I tried it.

bug 214544 is a crash with gnome-panel 2.22.1 will look upstream, thanks.

I've tried a little bit to get the panel crash on clock with weather.
It seems to be ok (for me).

I haven't been able to get it to crash on Hardy final. Bug seems to have vanished :)

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

closing the bug since it seems fixed now, feel free to reopen if you get the issue again though

This bug crashed my panel in Intrepid.

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

Nollapiste, may you submit a new bug report with apport to see if it's the same crash or not? thanks.

[Saku Laukkanen (nollapiste)]

Well, i dont have the report saved to anywhere. Is there any way to find old reports?
