Unfortunately, I failed to backup the "menu.p" pickle file that triggered this bug so I can't tell if the new release fixed the bug. Forcing update-app-install as root seems to recreate the menu.p file so that it works again, so maybe the actual bug was that this has not been forced after transition from edgy to feisty.
Nevertheless, if the menu.p is corrupt for some reason, gnome-app- install does not handle it and crashes. This is never good. See my patch above for a fix. -- Add/Remove programs crashed on Feisty https://launchpad.net/bugs/79619 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
