Comment 1 Elijah Newren 2003-02-15 17:10:24 UTC

Appears to be a unique stack trace, according to the
simple-dup-finder.  Setting version->2.2.x, marking priority->high &
severity->critical (it's a crasher), adding GNOMEVER2.2 and bugsquad
keywords, and marking as new.

Comment 2 Elijah Newren 2003-02-24 15:38:57 UTC

*** Bug 106921 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 3 James Strandboge 2003-02-25 13:56:14 UTC

I too have seen this (version 2.2.0.1).  When using a drawer, I get
these errors in .xsession-errors:

(gnome-panel:29833): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from
`FoobarWidget' to `BasePWidget'

I can't make it crash regularly-- but it often crashes on logout with
a drawer on the menu panel.  Remove the drawer and the panel doesn't
crash on logout.

Comment 4 Mark McLoughlin 2003-03-10 01:25:57 UTC

Okay, this:

+ Trace 34690

#6 strcmp
from /lib/libc.so.6
#7 transcmp
from /lib/libc.so.6
#8 tfind
from /lib/libc.so.6
#9 __dcigettext
from /lib/libc.so.6
#10 dcgettext
from /lib/libc.so.6



is the part of the trace which matches on both of these bugs. This
looks like a bug in gettext. Hard to be sure, though.
