[Bug 296243] Re: Osmo crashes on contacts search

[Eike Nicklas]

** Description changed:

- Hello,
+ In Ubuntu 8.10, Osmo crashes with a segmentation fault every time I try
+ to search contacts unless the search does not return any contact.
+ Searches worked fine in 8.04.
  
- I just upgraded to the last Ubuntu release (8.10) and now Osmo crashes
- with a segmentation fault every time I try to search contacts unless the
- search does not return any contact. Searches worked fine in 8.04.
- 
- I have checked this in the version of Osmo in the Ubuntu repositories
- (0.2.0) and in the last SVN revision (606) as well.
- 
- Steps to reproduce
+ TEST CASE:
      1- Start Osmo with an empty contact list
      2- Add a new contact. Name it 'John'
      3- Click the search box
-     4- Press 'j', Osmo crashes
+     4- Press 'j', Osmo crashes. If, for instance,  you press 'a' instead of 'j' Osmo does not crash.
  
- If, for instance,  you press 'a' instead of 'j' Osmo does not crash.
+ This bug only occurs with GTK+ >= 2.14 and has been fixed upstream in
+ R619.
+ 
+ A minimal patch is:
