Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-app-install

I started the gnome-app-install applet from the Applications menu and it crashed. The window appeared, with all in-window controls disabled, and a progress bar advancing rapidly. (Presumably, it enumerated the installed package list or something like that.) As far as I could see it crashed either during or immediately after that stage.

The bug reporter asked me to add a .crash file, I'll do it right away.

I use Synaptic and aptitude usually, this was just a whim, so I'm not sure if it's common. (By the way, Synaptic works right now, so the package lists should be OK.) I'll try again later to see if it still crashes. Let me know if I can add any information.

Yes, it still crashes while that first progress-bar is growing.
