Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gedit
gedit crashes when opening an empty file.
1. create an empty file by right-clicking on the file browser and choosing
'create document' then 'empty file'.
2. double-click on the file to open
3. gedit runs and crashes immediately (The gedit window disappears).
I tried in the terminal as well and got the following message.
$ gedit anEmptyFile
(gedit:14929): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_converter_convert: assertion
`outbuf_size > 0' failed
Segmentation fault
