Comment 7 for bug 189389

Adding to #5 and replying to #6: this occurred when removing a duplicate gpilot-applet icon from the GNOME panel. Specifically, multiple such icons were appearing. On removing one of them, the selected icon disappeared immediately; after about a second, the remainder disappeared at the time of the crash.

This was provoked by a mis-configuration, brought about as follows: under Jaunty, the gpilot-applet does not display on the GNOME panel. Hence, I added the applet, saw no feedback, and thinking (wrongly) that I had done something wrong, I repeated the operation. I then installed Karmic on top of the Jaunty install. When booted, GNOME under Karmic displayed all the duplicate applet icons.

Debug traces were supposedly uploaded using Apport. However, when I had removed all gpilot-applet elements from the GNOME panel, the crashes desisted and I cannot now reproduce the problem. All related Apport data in /var/crash now deleted by the system.

Please let me know if I can help further in tracking this down.
