Hi Bill!
Do you have g_key_file_get_string_list: assertion `group_name != NULL' failed
too?
If not, I would probably consider it a different bug, that should be reported
in a new bug report.
In that case, you may want to explore in GUI /var/crash, and 'double-'click the
crash file to be guided in reporting bug.
Well, while trying to learn what is update-desktop-database, I extracted code I
believe to be the culprit (seems the same in Gutsy and Hardy):
static void
process_desktop_file (const char *desktop_file,
const char *name,
GError **error)
{
GError *load_error;
GKeyFile *keyfile;
char **mime_types;
int i;
keyfile = g_key_file_new ();
load_error = NULL;
g_key_file_load_from_file (keyfile, desktop_file,
G_KEY_FILE_NONE, &load_error);
if (load_error != NULL)
{
g_propagate_error (error, load_error);
return;
}
mime_types = g_key_file_get_string_list (keyfile,
g_key_file_get_start_group (keyfile),
"MimeType", NULL, &load_error);
g_key_file_free (keyfile);
As I have no clue at all what that code does, I'll need a bit of time to
undestand it. ;-)
That said, when I do:
sudo apt-get remove yelp
on my Hardy system, I get no error at all.
