I think that the crash is gnome bug 569260, which should be fixed in gnome 2.26 (ubuntu 9.04). However, the fix does not let the networking extensions authenticate to proxies when they couldn't before. It just prevents a crash in that situation.
So I suspect that in 9.04 the networking extensions will not crash but still will not work. -- deskbar-applet crashed with EOFError in prompt_user_passwd() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280505 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is the registrant for deskbar-applet. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
