amsn crash when changing skin

Could you provide us the amsn version of Debian testing?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Intrepid Ibex. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

Amsn cannot change skin.
This is reproducible with Ubuntu packages version 0.97.2~debian-0ubuntu2 (Intrepid).

Thanks for testing. What happens when the crash occurs? Does an error message appear? If you run amsn in a terminal, what is the output when reproducing the crash? Thanks again.

There is not any crash, really that last problem I saw changing skin, is different than I initially reported.
I think this issue can be solved for amsn 0.97.2 (including version from Ubuntu packages) and also 0.98b from svn.
To avoid these problems there is to ensure that skin folders in /usr/share/amsn/skins have at least 755 permission mode.
And also I had to remove $HOME/.amsn folder to fix the last problem.
After doing these steps, now amsn 0.97.2 from Ubuntu packages works well and change skin, and also for 0.98b-svn version.

I think the initial report (with crash) was produced by wrong permissions in skin folders in /usr/share/amsn/skins. Setting them to 755 mode fixed the problem.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to reproduce now the initial case of my second post in which amsn couldn't change skin without crash, having 777 permission mode in skins folders. This would be useful to avoid anyone to suffer that issue any more.
