I wonder why you get all these weird segfaults :-) I can definitely see you have a null pointer dereference in that stack trace, but looking in the code that specific pointer should not be able to be null unless there is some other critical error condition. Or in fact, line 925 in daemon.c can not, not even in theory, cause a null dereference... However line 924 can - so there must be some line skew in the trace...
Line 924 can err if the UnityPackageSearcher fails to initialize somehow, but this should cause a message: "Error loading package indexes: $something" to appear on stderr which I'd assume we should see in your .xessesion- error - which I don't see. There is a bug somewhere that that the Software Center index is some times not generated, which can in fact cause this error to happen - which might also explain why software center fails to start. -- unity-applications-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in unity_applications_place_daemon_update_pkg_search() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/624169 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
