[apport] metacity crashed with SIGSEGV

[Anders]

Binary package hint: metacity

Got errors when ubuntu (feisty) downloaded & tried to install latest version of compiz. Opened synaptic, searched for broken packages, completely removed desktop-effects, compiz-* and then installed desktop-effects again. Fails with error when trying to enable desktop effects

Thank you for your bug. The linux 2.6.20-6 package has a bug which makes that crash files are not always usable, could you install linux 2.6.20-8 and get a new crash file with metacity-dbgsym installed?
