Bug#548977: gnome-core: Any application crashes when file-open dialog is called

[Jakub Lucký]

Oh, thank you for such info...

I hadn't met with any notification about session restart, but I was
upgrading about 200 packages so I might missed that out...

Thanks also about the info about strace... I will not send any more

Thanks
Jakub Lucký
