[Bug 754886] Re: Calibre crashes entire user session.

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: calibre
  
  After opening calibre the entire user session will crash and return to
  the gdm login screen within a minute, give or take.  This happens every
  time calibre is opened, even if the user switches to another application
  and doesn't perform any task with calibre other than starting it.
  Command line tools ebook-convert and calibredb add do not crash when
  used without starting the main program.

+ used without starting the main program.  This problem occurred for the
+ first time this morning after upgrading a large number of packages, and
+ did not occur two days ago (last time I can remember definitely using
+ calibre for an extended period), which was after I'd upgraded to the
+ natty beta.  One of the changes in the natty beta in the last two days
+ likely introduced this bug.
