synaptic crashed with SIGSEGV

[Georges Varouchas]

Synaptic crashed after applying an update.

A message box appeared saying "Do you wish to report this bug ?".
I clicked "Yes", and triggered another error, saying roughly "the bug data cannot be processed".

As a result, I was prompted without another message box "Do you wish to report this bug ?".
I clicked "Yes", and this time, the bug reporting process seemed to follow its normal course.

I don't know how to say from which bug the current data are taken.
