Hi, I need some more information on this. please do the following:

1) enable the debug archive. add the following line to your
sources.list:

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-debug testing-debug main

2) install pinpoint-dbgsym and gdb

3) run pinpoint under gdb:

gdb pinpoint

4) when gdb stops at the prompt, tell it to start pinpoint with the
example presentation:

(gdb) run /usr/share/doc/pinpoint/examples/introduction.pin

5) then copy the entire output and send it to this bug report.

example of doing that on my system (where pinpoint works just fine):

$ gdb pinpoint
