Crashes when right click->menu editor is opened.

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Running on Ubuntu Edgy Development, and just dist-upgraded yesterday. When I right-click on the Menu Bar (Applications - Places -System), and click edit-menus, gnome-panel crashes, and Bugbuddy is not able to recognize what crashed. Here's the gnome-panel-bugreport.txt that was generated by bugbuddy:-

Is this maybe AMD64? I cannot reproduce this on x86 ...

[graphic23 (graphic23)]

This is actually x86 not AMD64. I had finished dist-upgraded last night, and that flickering menu thing was happening. I got rid of the /etc/xdg/debian.menu-menu symlink (which was broken). And the flickering had stopped. So, maybe it is related to that. Because I tried it a few minutes ago, and it didn't crash.. so I think its related to that. Sorry for the false alarm, I guess. But if I put in a symlink that is indeed broken, it is crashing, so I think thats a bug ?

Install gnome-panel-dbg, and the no debug symbols found message will disappear. Duplicate the bug again, and this time you will have more debug info. Copy the output and save it to a text file and upload here so this page doesn't get too big.

[Vassilis Pandis (pandisv)]

Is this still a problem? If yes can you please install the -dbg package as Nirvana suggested and provide a new backtrace? Thanks

[graphic23 (graphic23)]

Vassilis,
           It doesn't seem so because of the latest gnome-panel installed. I have tried to reproduce it and it no longer crashes. So, I think its a fixed bug.

[Vassilis Pandis (pandisv)]

Ok, I'm marking it as such. Thanks very much for reporting this.
