Same problem here. I'm also unable to start gwget, but I think that's caused by some gconf stuff I broke.
The problem here that the correct (gconf?) schemas aren't installed, IIRC. I've built gwget 0.97 a couple of times, with and without the schemas (because they conflicted with other packages), and I remember having this problem when using ./configure --disable-schemas-install It didn't segfault however. I was just unable to do anything with the UI. ** Bug 45485 has been marked a duplicate of this bug -- gwget is broken in Dapper https://launchpad.net/bugs/45182 -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
