[Bug 876916] [NEW] gnome-terminal segfault error 4 libgobject-2.0.so

 

Public bug reported:

During routine usage of gnome-terminal, I experienced a segfault/crash
of the app.

I've never observed a crash in terminal,  so it was very surprising.
Unfortunately, the only log I received was this:

[243052.154280] gnome-terminal[1839]: segfault at 8 ip b6f1daca sp
bfa91790 error 4 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.3000.0[b6f0c000+4d000]

There were no cores, and apport was disabled (the default setting) so
nothing meaningful was captured.

I had 3 windows open with multiple tabs in each. One window contained a
screen session. The error seemed to occur while I was using vi and
editing a file. I don't know if this is reproducible, but hopeful the
ip/sp info may be of some use.
