I forgot to mention that I can solve the problem by opening the
summary page on another window, that doesn't make it crash.
Comment 2 Gerardo Marin 2003-06-10 17:23:59 UTC 
Please attach a backtrace. Otherwise we can't pinpoint the problem.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 244444 ***
Comment 5 Ettore Perazzoli 2003-06-23 14:29:53 UTC 
Gerardo, I am not sure this is the right duplicate.

Dario, does it fix itself if you switch the GTK theme to "Raleigh"? 
If not, the bug is unrelated.

I don't really see where the floating point exception comes from in
the stack trace either, though...  :-/
Comment 6 Gerardo Marin 2003-06-24 21:06:54 UTC 
Moving to needinfo then.
Dario: if switching yo other theme, please REOPEN this report.
Comment 7 Gerardo Marin 2003-08-26 20:57:10 UTC 
Closed due to lack of response. Presumed fixed.  Please reopen if
otherwise
