Package: desktop-file-utils Version: 0.13-2 Since doing a dist-upgrade last week I now get all these errors relating to a glib2 call resulting in a core dump for /usr/bin/update-desktop-database which is part of the package desktop-file-utils. I am running Debian lenny/testing release with kernel 2.6.18.
