I experience the same problem, allthough the crashes are happening more often (probably every second time i start EOG). It seems totally random, on which pictures the crash appears, usually it works well if I restart EOG and browse to the same picture again. I'm using Ubuntu Breezy AMD64.

Can you reproduce this bug with EOG CVS HEAD?

I would gladly try this, but I have to admit I'm much more only a normal user than a developer. Thus I don't have much experiences with "larger software projects", I came that far that I found a webinterface for the eog cvs repository on this url:

http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/rview.cgi?cvsroot=/cvs/gnome&dir=eog

but if I try to click anything, I just get an error (/registry/file.cgi not found). So what is the best way to download the repository files?

"Can you reproduce this bug with EOG CVS HEAD?"

Nope, looks good so far.  Not entirely conclusive, since it wasn't immediately reproduceable before.

(Minor whine: would it be too much trouble to provide build/install instructions in README and/or INSTALL?  I eventually noticed the spec file and figured it out from there, but getting to that point was kind of time consuming....

Note to Jan Rathman: the procedure was something like
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome
cvs login
cvs co eog
cd eog
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install

but it'll only succeed if you have some libraries and stuff installed; on debian I think I needed
apt-get build-dep eog
apt-get install gnome-common libgnome-desktop-2
)

OK, I tried that, the autogen.sh-script seems (at least) to run without errors, but when I try the make-command, it just says (translated to english):

make: *** No targets specified and no »make«-control-file found. closing.

I'm not sure what to do about it, i have checked that there are many files called "Makefile.am" in the subdirectories.

I bet the autogen.sh script actually failed--it produces a lot of output, and my memory is that the first time I ran it (and it failed, because I didn't have some stuff installed) it wasn't totally obvious that it had failed.

I checked it again, seems that indeed it didn't report clearly that I had a too old version of automake installed. But still no success, now I get the following output by autogen.sh:

Make still fails with the same message, I obeyed the instructions in the autogen-output to copy/download the named files, but still no sucess. 

bfields, are you using EOG in a AMD64 machine too?

A maybe interesting update concerning this bug: The crashes only seems to appear if the EOG-Window is NOT maximized, if it is maximized, everything seems to run perfectly stable, very strange.
