Yes, editing ability would be nice..

Sorry, I was feeling a little put upon at the moment. To reproduce this error open a session in Gnome fallback desktop, then open the standard console. Enter one of: sudo syntapic or gksu syntapic After entering your password you should get this problem. The start up of syntapic seems to iterate over some loop that produces this message several times. I've been in computers for over 50 years and my experience tells me that ignoring things like this is a dangerous thing. Whoever was last assigned to this program did not do a thorough quality check and this kind of thing is disturbing with a program that needs to be utterly trusted. Now, the solution to this could be simply the removal of a bad assertion, or it might be worth tracking down why that assertion is there. Some item is, in the opinion of the programmer who put it there essential and incorrect. Putting an assertion in a loop certainly calls attention to it when it fails. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1199823 Title: A seemingly harmless assertion error, but ...

"Yes, and at the same location." How would I go about reproducing this?

Yes, and at the same location. Calling the GUI directly doesn't do this using the icon, but we know why that is, do we not? All this then goes to the big bit bucket in the sky. Software QA means no bugs and no warnings of any kind. Letting something go when it seems harmless will turn around and bite you some day. One of the most annoying things that is happening in Ubuntu is the attempt to hide stuff from the users and modify or remove some tools because they are 'advanced' or 'out-moded'. The end-user is the one who should decide what tools he wants, and sitting in a design meeting with everyone on the same wavelength is not the way to do it. When a program works, it should be left alone. Re-inventing wheels because someone doesn't like the taste of it, is not the way to fly. P.S. The Unity desktop is not a good idea. All those icons just clutter up my desktop. So I am using the Gnome fallback desktop, and I hope you don't decide to eliminate that. There should be a general halt in trying to emulate the Microsoft desktop. It just confuses everyone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1199823 Title: A seemingly harmless assertion error, but ...
