Another crash for upstream, to close when it's done.
Reported here. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2921656&group_id=204472&atid=989748 I'll close this once its fixed upstream.

This is upstream bug, closing. Peter: in upstream comment, log means -d 4 output.
(In reply to comment #5) > This is upstream bug, closing. Peter: in upstream comment, log means -d 4 > output. I don't see why upstream can't use backtraces every other project does. The problem with "get a log" is that often your already running it when it crashes and its often horrifically hard to replicate the problem because you often need the same remote end point etc which you often don't have access to or can't go "please call me back so I can recreate a bug with my soft phone but please wait while I start a terminal, run the commands to get debug and it re-registers with the SIP GW". A back trace has all the information and is generated post crash so we have all the information. Add to that as a maintainer in Fedora trying to explain that to an end user over bugzilla and its never going to happen.
In this very specific case, the stacktrace tells only the function, not the parameters; this is because dbg package has not been installed I suppose (if this is right, it would be wonderful to automatically install dbg package upon a crash). So it is difficult/impossible to find out the error. Maybe I was wrong when I said log=-d 4 output, maybe it was about dbg package to be installed, I do not know. By the way, I see that the problematic thread is executing Ekiga code to create the menu, which seems strange to me. Julien, do you have an idea of what happens?
