Description nathansamson 2010-09-11 20:31:47 UTC

1) Logout
2) Login (or do something else to clear your copy/paste buffer)
3) Open gnome-calculator
4) paste (ctrl-v, in the context menu its disabled)
5) Observe crash

(I'm using the version in the Ubuntu maverick repositories)

The stacktrace crashes in math_equatation_insert
