Title: gedit crashed with SIGSEGV while switching to print preview Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Gedit crashed while trying to preview a (5000 lines or so) file before sending it to the printer. I'm not sure if it's relevant, but there were like 20 other text files open in that instance (and some of them were also around 5000 lines or so), and there was another instance in a different workspace, with around 10 LaTeX files or so. Besides some plugins installed through synaptic (see apt-cache list below), the plugins directory in $XDG_DATA_DIR contains the advancedfind, duplicate_line, sourcecodebrowser, tabs_extended and toggletextwrap plugins (found on http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins ). Although it's not-so-easily reproducible, gedit has crashed many times on my computer lately, under similar conditions ---but this is the first time apport doesn't give up while trying to report it, because of the size of the .crash file. ...:~$ apt-cache policy gedit* gedit: Installed: 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages gedit-common: Installed: 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages gir1.2-gedit-3.0: Installed: (none) Candidate: (none) Version table: gedit-dev: Installed: 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages gedit-developer-plugins: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.5.4-0ubuntu1.1 Version table: 0.5.4-0ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/universe amd64 Packages 0.5.4-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages gedit-latex-plugin: Installed: 3.3.1-1~ppa2 Candidate: 3.3.1-1~ppa2 Version table: *** 3.3.1-1~ppa2 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.3.1-1~oneiric1 0 100 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-backports/universe amd64 Packages 0.2.0-1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages gedit-plugins: Installed: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status gedit-r-plugin: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.7.0.2-1 Version table: 0.7.0.2-1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages gedit-valencia-plugin: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.3.0-3ubuntu1 Version table: 0.3.0-3ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages gigedit: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.2.0-1 Version table: 0.2.0-1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages libpam-alreadyloggedin: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.3-3 Version table: 0.3-3 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages rabbitvcs-gedit: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.13.1-2 Version table: 0.13.1-2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages gedit-gmate: Installed: 0.10~uorppa4 Candidate: 0.10~uorppa4 Version table: *** 0.10~uorppa4 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-on-rails/ppa/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status zeitgeist-datasource-gedit: Installed: 0.8.0.1-0ubuntu1~oneiric3~ppa Candidate: 0.8.0.1-0ubuntu1~oneiric3~ppa Version table: *** 0.8.0.1-0ubuntu1~oneiric3~ppa 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/zeitgeist/ppa/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ...:~$ uname -rsvpm && lsb_release -rd Linux 3.0.0-13-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 2 13:27:26 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release: 11.10 ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: gedit 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-13.22-generic 3.0.6 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-13-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Nov 21 00:40:45 2011 Disassembly: => 0x7f6690e60859: Cannot access memory at address 0x7f6690e60859 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gedit InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111011) ProcCmdline: gedit ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SegvAnalysis: Segfault happened at: 0x7f6690e60859: Cannot access memory at address 0x7f6690e60859 PC (0x7f6690e60859) ok SP (0x7fff987bd910) ok Reason could not be automatically determined.
