Description François Proulx 2011-11-25 18:25:43 UTC
Application: kstars (2.0.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.7.2 (4.7.2)
Qt Version: 4.7.4
Operating System: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic-pae i686
Distribution: Linux Mint 12 Lisa

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed: I was only trying to open it after installing it for a 2nd time. I run Linux Mint 12-32 bit (Gnome 3 + MSGE) on a laptop built to run on Linux. On Ubuntu 10.10, there was no problems. Kstars started to do this when I went to Ubuntu 11.10.

The crash can be reproduced every time.

Hi

This has already been fixed in the development branch. However, there is a temporary workaround. See one of the last few comments by Alexey Khudyakov on bug 279026 for the workaround.

Thanks for the report.

Regards
Akarsh

Hello.

Thanks for the reply. But since I am using Gnome 3 (in Linux Mint 12), I 
cannot apply the workaround. The file seems to be somewhere else and I 
can't find it. I am a new user of Linux (less than 1/2 a year) and I 
must admit that I still need a lot of guidance when there is work to be 
done on a terminal. I have to admit that I tend to avoid doing so as 
much as I can get away with (this is the windows man leftover within 
me... Sorry). Is there any way someone could help (guide) me.
