Bug#443598: gossip: crashes with GdkPixbuf assertion failure

[Bram Senders]

Package: gossip
Version: 0.27-2
Severity: important

Hi there,

On startup, Gossip crashes with the following assertion failure:

    bram at braille% gossip
    
    GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_scale_simple: assertion `dest_width > 0' failed
    aborting...
    zsh: abort      gossip

I upgraded libgtk2.0-0 to 2.12.0-2 today, and some GNOME stuff was upgraded to
version 2.20, so I guess one of these is the culprit, since this version
of Gossip always worked fine before.

Cheers,
Bram Senders
