gnome-terminal random crashes

[M Willis Monroe]

I'm running breezy and as of the most recent dist-upgrade on july 13th 20:30 est
gnome-terminal is crashing randomally, when I start it, it crashes about 3/5's
of the time, sometimes the gnome "app crashed" dialog comes up, but other times
it just crashes. Usually if it doesn't crash right away it'll stay up for the
duration of my work. It generally crashes within 5-10 seconds of opening it and
typing commands. I'm not using any curses programs either, it's generally just
apt-get'ing new breezy stuff.

I'd be happy to run a gnome-terminal-dbg package and report what that leaves
behind, if a dev would provide it.

thanks for your bug. What version of gtk are you using? Can you get a backtrace
without the a dbg package?

[M Willis Monroe (willismonroe)]

i'm using gtk 2.6.8-1ubuntu2

and where might i have a gnome-terminal-dbg package?

gnome's backtrace of gnome-terminal

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the crash is due to libuim0 according to the backtrace. What happen if you
remove this package? Does it fix the issue?

[M Willis Monroe (willismonroe)]

yeah it was libuim,

all fixed now, but now i'm missing uim support
