Description Toon Verstraelen 2004-06-04 00:35:23 UTC
I had a few files opened in gedit. Then I switched to mozilla and later to ooffice. (They were already running.) After working with these applications for a few minutes, gedit crashed en the bugbuddy came up. The text file generated with bugbuddy is attached below.

Comment 3 Yi Quang (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-04 13:35:01 UTC
Bug buddy reports are useless because the application wasn't compiled with debug enabled and also was stripped.  I would suggest recompiling the application with -march=i686 -O2 and see if the problem still occurs.  However, if you do manage to reproduce this bug, give us an gdb/strace report.  
Comment 4 Toon Verstraelen 2004-06-04 14:36:04 UTC
Ok, gedit has been recompiled with your C an CXX flags.

I didn't find any core file after the crash. Shouldn't all crashed apps leave a core file somewhere? It could have been usefull.

I'm using gedit very frequently and this bug really bugs me. That's why I've changed my shortcut to gedit so that it is always executed from a gdb session in a terminal. Are there other things I could do to catch the problem?
Comment 5 Toon Verstraelen 2004-06-04 14:51:56 UTC
running gedit from gdb didn't seem to be a good idea. When I tried to, gdb starts but when pressing the "open" button...

You should read my entire post, you need to compile gedit with debug enabled to get useful gdb traces.

I didn't encounter this problem anymore in gedit-2.6.2
