from duplicate:

crashed when moving a page via drag&drop

it did not actually crash but i was able to continue writing, apport popped up, however...

apparently this also happens when renaming a file by other means (e.g. right click in index -> rename)
apport pops up for every rename, but i can continue to use the application

[Jaap Karssenberg (jaap.karssenberg)]

I'm the developer for this application and would like to investigate. Unfortunately these apport reports don't mean much to me. Please include the actual error output from zim.

You can get output on stderr by running zim from a terminal with "zim -D".

[Jaap Karssenberg (jaap.karssenberg)]

Thanks Michael. Just confirmed this issue is still present in zim 0.46 :(

[Jaap Karssenberg (jaap.karssenberg)]

Fix committed in revision 224, will be included in next release (zim 0.47).

[Michael Nagel (nailor)]

that patch should be backported and included into the ubuntu package

[Jaap Karssenberg (jaap.karssenberg)]

I linked a branch with the patch against zim 0.43, this can be used to update the package.

[silvio1964 (verdecchiasilvio)]

J'm not able to post here the output of zim -D while i had a crash of the system and now is running a new installation,sorry.

[Jaap Karssenberg (jaap.karssenberg)]

Fix released in zim 0.47

[Michael Nagel (nailor)]

recent ubuntu packages do not contain that bug.
