Abort (core dump) when deleting dialog

Bug Description

Binary package hint: glade

Package version: glade 2.12.1-1ubuntu5 x86_64

I wanted to completely redesign the layout of a dialog so I created a new one with new layout containers. I copied some widgets from the old dialog into their new places then renamed them to their original names. Finally I deleted the original dialog, at which point glade aborted and lost my changes. Perhaps having widgets with the same names in both the new and old dialog upset it?

The error message was:

 ** ERROR **: file gailtreeview.c: line 3604 (garbage_collect_cell_data): assertion failed: (GAIL_IS_TREE_VIEW (data))
aborting...
Aborted (core dumped)

I'm afraid this bug may have to be abandoned for a number of reasons.

I eventually managed to do what I wanted with the file anyway, but if
you're still interested I could dig out an old version for you. The
process to provoke the bug was quite involved though and I don't know
how easy it would be to reproduce.

Since reporting the bug I made the mistake of upgrading to Edgy without
reading the warning and after having lots of problems I decided to
install Debian unstable because I prefer its program of continuous
updates. So I don't have access to the exact versions of glade-2 etc I
was using before.

I think gail was disabled/not installed anyway, because I remember being
used to seeing a message to that effect when starting glade-2.
