Thanks for the pointers. Yet I can confirm that installing: sudo aptitude install libappindicator1/maverick-proposed python-appindicator/maverick-proposed (and rebooting) does /not/ solve the issue: ayers@schiefer:~$ apt-cache policy libappindicator1 libappindicator1: Installiert: 0.2.9-0ubuntu1.1 Kandidat: 0.2.9-0ubuntu1.1 Versionstabelle: *** 0.2.9-0ubuntu1.1 0 400 http://at.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-proposed/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 0.2.9-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://at.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages
and since bug #708188 also point to libappindicator and this is actually associated with gnome-session-daemon, I hope you don't mind me changing the status to confirmed. I'd rather not give feedback to the libappinidicator reports since those are not the crashes I'm seeing. My crash is 100% reproducible and always effects gnome-settings-daemon. Of course I'd be happy to test other packages if there is reason to believe that are related. ** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554280 Title: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in g_str_hash() -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
