Description Elijah Newren 2002-12-03 05:56:32 UTC
I'm guessing that this bug should be filed under vte (due to the "vte*"
functions in the stacktrace), but since I'm not sure I'm filing it
against gnome-terminal.

I don't know what's relevant, so here's what happened and what I did:

1. Immediately upon login, battstat crashes
2. Bug-buddy fires up but doesn't get a backtrace
3. I launch a gnome-terminal
4. I open a second tab and ssh to my school account to read my email (in
order to find out how to get a stack trace using gdb when bug-buddy
doesn't get one)
5. I go back to the original tab and run gdb; attach to the process, and
get a stack trace.
6. The stack trace is long so I extend the vertical size of the
gnome-terminal window a couple times and move it upwards.
7. Gnome-terminal crashes.

How often does this happen?
This is the first time.  I'll see if I can somehow reproduce it later,
unless this is already a duplicate of what others have found.

Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnome-terminal'
