Thanks for the bug report.  I can confirm the bug here (without beagle running).

The relevant section of the stacktrace (missing above) is:

(gdb) bt
->#0  slow_search_setup (pager=0x84f4a88) at yelp-search-pager.c:1399

Along with the error messages:
(yelp:7450): Yelp-WARNING **: beagled not running, using basic search support.

(yelp:7450): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_strsplit: assertion `string != NULL' failed

(yelp:7450): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_strv_length: assertion `str_array != NULL' failed

(yelp:7450): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_strsplit: assertion `string != NULL' failed

I'll look at and fix this when I get a chance.  With beagle running, no crash happens

I've committed a simple empty check on the search string.  This stops the crash.  This should appear in the next version of yelp (2.16.2)

Closing.  Thanks.

        Don't crash when searching for empty term.  Bug #363949
