Description Julian Ospald 2012-06-14 22:55:06 UTC
4.0.0.7

why does it not crash?
Comment 1 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-06-14 22:58:50 UTC
it's a feature
Comment 2 Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-06-14 23:13:43 UTC
I cannot confirm. It usually crashes for me a few seconds after launch or as soon as I click somewhere.

Then... WORKSFORME I guess? (i.e. it crashes as expected)
Comment 3 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-06-14 23:22:05 UTC
cool, so we DO have crashing binary blob as expected

got a hex editor?
