Bug#284493: gnome-games: critical assertion failed in eggdesktopentries.c at installation time.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: gnome-games
Version: 1:2.8.1-2
Severity: normal


Hi,

at upgrade time of gnome-games from '1:2.6.2-3' to '1:2.8.1-2', just
after the message 'Installing new version of config file
/etc/sound/events/gnibbles.soundlist ...', I get the following error
messages:

** (process:2527): CRITICAL **: file eggdesktopentries.c: line 2223
(egg_desktop_entries_add_group): assertion
`egg_desktop_entries_lookup_group (entries, group_name) == NULL' failed

** (process:2527): CRITICAL **: file eggdesktopentries.c: line 2223
(egg_desktop_entries_add_group): assertion
`egg_desktop_entries_lookup_group (entries, group_name) == NULL' failed

** (process:2527): CRITICAL **: file eggdesktopentries.c: line 2223
(egg_desktop_entries_add_group): assertion
`egg_desktop_entries_lookup_group (entries, group_name) == NULL' failed

Of course, no way to know what it was for a process... Tell me if I can
do something to help find the cause of the problem.

Cheers, Eric
