Package: ipython
Version: 0.7.2-3.1
Severity: normal
When threading is enabled (tested with -pylab or -gthread options),
ipython sometimes crashes with a Segmentation Fault when trying to use
tab completion. This does not happen systematically, but often enough to
cause painful losses of interactive sessions.
I did not observe this without the -pylab or -gthread options.
Example session follows:
: tiny:~$;ipython -pylab
Python 2.3.5 (#2, Jul 30 2006, 15:57:01)

help -> Python's own help system.
object? -> Details about 'object'. ?object also works, ?? prints more.
Welcome to pylab, a matplotlib-based Python environment.

Steps to (sometimes...) reproduce: start ipython with -pylab option, and
use tab completion several times.

Heya,
as several people reported this bug as not reproducible, I assume that
the bug was fixed within the last months. Please reopen it, if you find
a way to reproduce it with ipython 0.8.0.
Thanks for reporting,
Bernd
