Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-utils

Gnome-dictionary crashed on "trial" with a simple window resize.

I lauched Gnome-dictionary. Searched the word "bidon" (in French: container, jerrycan, and dummy entry). Gnome-dictionary suggested a list, among the list I doubled-clicked on "Bison". It displayed the definition. I resized the window with the mouse, expanding it to the right. Then Clicked on the View menu entry in the menu bar. It crashed.

I've redone the query differently. It crashed again.
I query the word "bidon". Select "bison" from the list. Clicked on all elements of the menu bar. Stop any activity. Waited less than 20 seconds. It crashed.

I've done a new query.
I query the word "bidon". Select "bison" form the list. Click on the elements of the menu bar, so far it works. Resize the window by expanding it to the right. Then clik on the lookup field, right in the middle of the word "Bison". It crashed

I believe that gnome-dictionary is in gnome-utils; however, I don't know where to find the -dbgsym package, along with the gdict-dbgsym one. Can someone point me in the right direction? I can't find them in the official "debug" repositories.

Then I'll be more than happy to produce a full backtrace.

I tried to reproduce the bug with gnome-dictionary 2.20.0.1. (gnome-utils 2.20.0.1-1ubuntu5)

I cannot reproduce the bug.

closing the bug since that works correctly now, feel free to reopen if you get the issue again and can get a debug stacktrace though
