Description Nathan Adams 2004-09-16 05:12:35 UTC

After creating a Gnewspost session (with a SFV file and no zero file, if that helps), I click Add, select a file, and click OK. Gnewspost then crashes with the following message box:

Error
Application "gnewspost" (process 32627) has crashed due to a fatal error.
(Segmentation fault)

The shell I started Gnewspost from tells me this:

$ gnewspost

Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkentry.c: line 442 (gtk_entry_set_text): assertion `text != NULL' failed.
$

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a session (create SFV, no zero file)
2. Add a file
3.

Actual Results:  
gnewspost crashes

Expected Results:  
The file should be added to the post list.
