Bug#431166: gnome-utils: Invalid memory reference

Sat Jun 30 10:50:27 UTC 2007

Package: gnome-utils
Version: 2.18.1-1
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/gnome-dictionary

*** Please describe what you were doing when the application crashed ***
I get frequent crashes from the dictionary application when browsing the
results of a query. I'm using a local dictionary server and among
others, searching for "treffen" causes the dictionary to crash right
after the results are presented.

Below is the trace back and further down the results as returned by the
command-line client. I'm only using Debian-provided dictionaries, so I
expect you'll be able to reproduce this.

(no debugging symbols found)
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".
