I'm sorry that there is some information missing from this bug report, but I
wanted to try to use GNOME's bug buddy tool.  This bug rears its nasty head in
balsa 2.1.91.  It was also in 2.1.90.  I am running balsa on a PowerPC-based
GNU/Linux system.

Comment 2 W. Michael Petullo 2004-08-22 23:10:37 UTC

I don't see this bug anymore in 2.2.0.
