Comment 1 Shaun McCance 2011-08-03 16:52:27 UTC
Bug 654036 happened when you closed a window then opened another to the same document. This could be triggered e.g. if you click a Help button in an app, close the Yelp window, then immediately click the same Help button again. The LP bug doesn't say if that was the case, although the stack traces to look very similar.

I did notice in the LP bug that the command line is "yelp ghelp:hardware#jockey". At least in upstream GNOME, this doesn't point to any document. The new help for Unity mirrors GNOME's help pretty closely, so I think the URI is probably also wrong on Ubuntu. Not that a wrong URI should cause a crash, of course, but if an application is linking to that, it should be fixed.
