Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or
challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these
instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can
be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable
apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

Now open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the 
crash report you wish to submit.
If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 
'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is 
the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed 
to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug 
/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will
automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more
efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

Title:
  Opening this file causes gedit to segfault

Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I found this (binary) file inside of an app called RetroShare. I tried
  to open it in my running gedit window by drag-and-drop, and my gedit
  disappeared. I then tried to "gedit <filename>" from the command line.
  The gedit window opened, was blank for a little bit, and then
  disapeared, and I got "Segmentation fault" in my terminal.

  The offending file is attached.
