Bug#576624: Segfault when loading the background pixbuf failed

[Wen-Yen Chuang]

Hash: SHA1

Source: vte
Version: 1:0.24.0-1
Severity: serious

If vte_terminal_set_background_image_file() can not load the image
correctly(broken file, null file, etc), it makes the application
segfault.

There is a bug report to upstream maybe refer to this problem. [1]
Upstream seems has known this problem, too. [2]

There is a workaround for applications that uses libvte [3],
but I think vte should be fixed before Squeeze release.

evilvte in Sid and Squeeze works fine with vte 1:0.22.5-3 but segfault
with 1:0.24.0-1.

Kind regards
