I started ekiga, went to the address book, created a new local address book and ekiga hung for a while and then crashed. Apport picked up the crash straight away.

Comment 1 Snark 2008-10-13 10:03:56 UTC
It seems gconf isn't installed correctly for this user.
Comment 2 Duncan Lithgow 2008-10-13 11:15:55 UTC
Again, how do get the attention of the correct devs if this is just marked 'resolved'?

This should never happen, unless the app unrefs the default client too often.
Comment 4 Kjartan Maraas 2009-03-08 09:03:45 UTC
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
Without a stack trace from the crash it's very hard to determine what caused it.
Can you get us a stack trace? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!
Comment 5 Snark 2009-03-08 10:10:34 UTC
Why is it still assigned to the ekiga maintainers? It's both a gconf issue and a problem with an obsolete version of ekiga...
Comment 6 Kris Thomsen 2009-07-27 20:53:28 UTC
Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you can provide the information asked for.
