[Bug 914391] [NEW] Segmentation fault when running "gnome-control-center" over X11

 

Public bug reported:

I have two latest-update 11.10 machines next to each other, both with Internet addresses.
I ssh -X from one to the other and launch gnome-control-center, with or without sudo.
>From the window that pops up, I click on "User Accounts" and promptly it disappears and my terminal reports  a seg fault.

This is repeatable. I get the same thing if I first bring up a remote
xterm and then do it from that.

I need to administrate the remote machine, ie to run gnome-control-
center, so this bug shuts me down.
