Bug Description

Hi

When running bbkeys in dapper I get this error (with blackbox installed)

bbkeys: ScreenHandler: in findSupportingWM.
bbkeys: ScreenHandler: first readSupportingWMCheck succeeded.
bbkeys: ScreenHandler: second readSupportingWMCheck worked.
bbkeys: ScreenHandler: Found compatible window manager: [Blackbox] for screen: [0].
bbkeys: ScreenHandler: Supported atoms: [45].
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x0808c3c8 ***
Aborted

It seems other people are experiencing the same problems...

Excellent work on digging up that URL. According to a comment there, this was a compile-against-the-correct-library problem, which has been resolved in Edgy. This is also bug 35260. Once again, thanks for digging up the URL.
