Bug#501519: enchant crashes when closing a directory before returning a dictionary
Package: enchant Version: 1.4.2-3.1 Severity: critical There have been ongoing problems with gramps crashing (other packages are almost certainly affected) when spell checking is enabled. The problem was finally traced to enchant. It appears that enchant can crash if a directory is closed before a dictionary is returned.

Bug#474056: gramps: needs python2.5 but does not depend on it, and fails to install in minimal environment
Simon, Thank you for the additional information and the patch. As you seem quite familiar with the python infrastructure I thought I'd mention one thing. You removed the python-minimal dependency, which I know is not recommended. The reason I added that is to ensure that a recent enough version is installed. After initially building the new version of gramps, it wouldn't install. I tracked it down to having an old version of python-minimal; /usr/share/python/debian_defaults was not up to date. This made it impossible to install gramps as python 2.5 wasn't in the list of supported versions. As python has a strict version dependency on python-minimal I have changed the python-minimal dependency to python (>= 2.4.4-6). Does that seem reasonable to you? -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. James Treacy Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? [EMAIL PROTECTED] A: Top-posting.

I am unable to reproduce the problem here. I suspect that this is due to the recent upgrade to the gnome packages.

I do not see that my opinion on the future of a file I committed 8 years ago should carry much weight when I have not been involved with the web site for over 3 years. Additionally, this request comes in the middle of a long bug that I do not have the time to read now. As a general statement, though, I would agree that the contents of the Debian web site should not contain information that is wrong or intentionally misleading. As an aside, I most certainly have not been MIA since 2004. It is true that I have not been involved with the Debian web site much since 2002 and do not read the debian web related mailing lists, but my involvement with Debian continues. -- James Treacy [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#335968: gramps: Segmentation fault
severity 335968 important stop This bug has been downgraded to important as it only seems to affect some machines. It doesn't crash on my workstation (athlon; linux 2.6.11.7) but does crash on my laptop (pentium M; crashes under linux 2.6.14-rc5 and 2.6.9). Both machines are running the latest version of sid. (gdb) run /usr/share/gramps/gramps.py [snip] Running gramps under gdb results in the following: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/gramps/gramps.py", line 81, in ? import gramps_main File "/usr/share/gramps/gramps_main.py", line 58, in ? import MediaView File "/usr/share/gramps/MediaView.py", line 49, in ? import ImageSelect File "/usr/share/gramps/ImageSelect.py", line 59, in ? import RelImage File "/usr/share/gramps/RelImage.py", line 34, in ? from QuestionDialog import ErrorDialog, WarningDialog File "/usr/share/gramps/QuestionDialog.py", line 47, in ? ICON = pixbuf_new_from_file(const.icon) gobject.GError: Failed to open file './gramps.png': No such file or directory What is odd here is that the failure seems to be different from what Jeffrey reported. As Alex has already stated, this bug is not due to gramps. At a minimum, what we need to do is narrow down the problem so the bug can be reassigned to the proper place. -- James Treacy [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#334122: Receive an "Segmentation fault" when launching gramps

This is almost certainly a problem with python or the gtk/gnome bindings. Try starting python and importing modules: $ python >>> import gtk >>> import gnome >>> import gconf >>> import gtkspell If the modules all imported without problems, run gdb on python and then run gramps: $ gdb /usr/bin/python (gdb) run /usr/share/gramps/gramps.py If, as I suspect, this is a problem with gtkspell, you can still use gramps by uninstalling gtkspell. -- James Treacy [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#327297: gramps 2.0.8-1 segfaults on startup on AMD64
It would be useful if you could run gramps under gdb: $ cd /usr/share/gramps $ gdb /usr/bin/python (gdb) run gramps.py after it segfaults then type (gdb) backtrace Please send the results of the backtrace as a reply. This should help us identify which library has the bug and refile the bug against that package.
