Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.10.1-3
Severity: normal
When many gconf settings are changed simultaneously, gnome-panel crashes.
For example, the command
gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel
will cause the panel to 'quit unexpectedly.' While this is quite abusive since the panel is notified of many setting changes by gconfd, crashing should not be necessary.
