What were you doing when the application crashed? Clicking on the 'Split' button to close a split transaction Distribution: Gentoo Base System version 1.12.6 Gnome Release: 2.16.2 2007-02-02 (Gentoo) BugBuddy Version: 2.16.0 Memory status: size: 97316864 vsize: 0 resident: 97316864 share: 0 rss: 42106880 rss_rlim: 0 CPU usage: start_time: 1171203024 rtime: 0 utime: 8410 stime: 0 cutime:7995 cstime: 0 timeout: 415 it_real_value: 0 frequency: 51 Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnucash' Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

Thanks for reporting this problem (duplicate of bug#364946). This is a serious issue which we would like to fix, but unfortunately none of us developers has been able to reproduce the crash in a reliable way (i.e. every time). If you are interested in helping: Also, did you have accessibility enabled (might be called assistive input techniques or similar)? Does this crash still occur if you disable this? Is there a sequence of keystrokes / mouseclicks that will lead to this crash *every time*? The question of accessibility seems to play an important role here.
I didn't have accessibility enabled, but under "Keyboard Accessibility Preferences (AccessX)" I had the "Enable Repeat Keys" box ticked. I haven't been able to reproduce the crash at all again, but will make a note and test if it happens again. Good luck!
The main bug#364946 now has an easy testcase to reproduce it, so this bug will be closed as a duplicate of the other one, which in turn will hopefully be fixed soon. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 364946 ***
