Pedro,
I've tried to reproduce this bug, but it only occurs when pressing "Stamp R Sist" ("SRS"), not while using gdb's command "run".
I've tried tons of times for it to happen while executed from gdb, but I couldn't reproduce the bug.
Instead, when I tried to get a screenshot pressing SRS, apport showed up =_=
I've tried to send the report, but it said it was unable because of some old packets.. I'll try again =(
Sorry,
Claudio

do you still get the crash using the current versions?

[Fotis Stefanidis (fotios)]

With the latest update-upgrade nope!

Thanks

closing the bug since there is no recent duplicate nor comment stating that's still an issue, you can reopen if you still get the bug using the current version though
