Crash in tilda on opening in ubuntu-edgy (AMD64)

[Dominic Thyagarajan]

From console:
/home/dominic/.tilda/config_0:1: missing equal sign after option 'max_height'

(tilda:6815): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_strlcpy: assertion `src != NULL' failed
Key Incorrect -- Read the README or tilda.sf.net for info, rerun as 'tilda -C' to set keybinding
: Success
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Thanks. We'll need to get a debug version of Tilda.

Can you follow the instructions listed at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash?action=show&redirect=DebuggingProgramCrashes

I can confirm this happening not only for amd64, but for an i386 also.

[Matt Wilkie (maphew)]

another confirmation on an intel box. First reboot after running a dist-upgrade, which has not completed successfully.

[Áron Sisak (asisak)]

Seems to be a configuration file error. Please delete (backup first, if needed) the ~/.tilda directory and try to run tilda again.

[DrLock (nospam-drlock)]

Yes, the problem is that Tilda changed the config file format. The new config files are very different from the old ones. The upgrade should provide some automatic configuration file converter.
