Confirmed when Synapse is built with valac 0.10.[23], searching for anything crashes Synapse.
As a workaround disable the "Selection" plugin.

@gilir: Could you rebuild the package using 0.11.[56]?

Michal, you should at least bump the requirement in configure.ac until it's fixed

I don't want to completely depend on unstable vala release, we'll wait for another bugfix release of 0.10, and then release 0.2.4.1 with a fix.
