Bug#397726: linphone: segfaults immediately on startup

[Sebastian Leske]

Package: linphone
Version: 1.5.0-1
Severity: important


On invocation, linphone (invoked as "linphone" from an xterm) briefly
pops up its main window (only partially painted), then Gnome's (?) crash
dialog appears: "Die Anwendung linphone wurde unerwartet beendet" etc.
(application linphone terminated unexpectedly).

I deleted my .linphonerc and .gnome2/linphonerc, which didn't make a
difference.

-------

Strace shows a segfault:
