[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#777675: qtcreator: hang and repeated SIGSEGV on exit

[Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer]

reassign 777675 fglrx-driver
thanks

fglrx maintainers: this bug is only reproducible while using the fglrx driver, 
so I'm reassigning it to you. I have seen this same problems in upstream's 
mailing lists and irc channels and the end result is the same: bug in the 
driver.

Let's put it in this way: if the bug only happens when using this particular 
driver then the bug is in the driver. And if you ask me, no, I really don't 
care about non-free stuff. And yes, I have bought other video cards in order 
to avoid proprietary drivers.

Have you filled bugs against it in order to try to fix it?

To sort out if it's a driver issue. And it is. I am so reassigning this bug.

No need to, it's a bug in the driver. Thanks for your bug report.
