Public bug reported:
On one of my home machines this crash affects my wife's account but not
mine. Any application which uses GNOME file dialogs will crash when she
accesses a file dialog -- open or save. Observed with gnome, gaim, gimp,
openoffice.org. Workaround for the last one is to use OOO's own file
dialogs, but for native GNOME applications it's not that simple. We did
come up with the workaround of launching a VNC session in which she has
an xterm and metacity and gimp, but nothing else-- and in there GIMP
works fine with the file dialogs.
Possibly related to 53355, but much more widespread than just firefox.
Also we use regular Ubuntu Dapper, not kubuntu. The latest dapper
updates have been applied... for example gtk+20 package version is
2.8.20-0ubuntu1.
Traceback from gdb session in which I (using my wife's account) launched
gedit and picked Open:
