Bug Description
Binary package hint: yelp
Applies to 8.04 and 7.10
Install glibc-doc
Start yelp
Select Advanced Topics->GNU Info Pages->Software Libraries->Libc
This will cause a crash and an error:
**
** Yelp:ERROR:
Aborted (core dumped)
This can also happen when clicking on some other Info node and clicking on hyperlinks inside of yelp info viewer plugin (although the glibc node is more likely to crash - probably due to its size). It seems that the lower position in the list of yelp GNU-Info topic, the greater likelihood of a crash. Once a crashing node is found, all the nodes below it will also crash. So it is like a snowball effect where one bad apple spoils everything below it.
