Comment 1 André Klapper 2006-08-10 15:07:56 UTC

perhaps very related to bug 349310

Comment 2 Christian Kirbach 2006-08-11 10:01:35 UTC

crashes in pango but could be caused by e_cell_text_new ()

Comment 3 Christian Kirbach 2006-08-11 10:02:11 UTC

Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so.

please install pango and evolutin debuggin packages

Comment 4 James "Doc" Livingston 2006-08-11 10:14:25 UTC

I'd installed the debugging symbols for those (and a few others) shortly after this, but haven't yet been able to reproduce the crash - it's occurrence was seemingly random. I'll try to get itto happen again, but I'm not sure what caused it.

Comment 5 André Klapper 2006-11-09 23:51:14 UTC

Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided.

Doc, please feel free to reopen this bug if this happens again, thanks!
