Application: simon (0.3.80) KDE Platform Version: 4.7.4 (4.7.4) Qt Version: 4.7.4 Operating System: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic x86_64 Distribution: Linux Mint 12 Lisa -- Information about the crash: - What I was doing before the application crashed: I deleted these folders: /home/ubuntu/.kde/share/apps/simon /home/ubuntu/.kde/share/apps/simond /home/ubuntu/.kde/share/apps/sam I can't start Simon any more. Even a new installation of Simon (via git clone and ./build.sh) doesn't help. I am using Linux Mint 12. I don't know how to fix this (I don't want to make a fresh install of Linux Mint). The crash can be reproduced every time. -- Backtrace: Application: Simon (simon), signal: Segmentation fault [Current thread is 1 (Thread 0x7f870d45a780 (LWP 3617))] Thread 2 (Thread 0x7f86f14d3700 (LWP 3618)): #0 0x00007f8708a83473 in poll () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007f87068adf68 in ??

I'm guessing the problem is that while you removed Simons data files, you didn't remove the configuration pointing it to those files. Please remove the following files and try again: /home/ubuntu/.kde/share/config/*simon* /home/ubuntu/.kde/share/config/speechmodelmanagementrc Let me know if that fixes your problem. To be honest, I wouldn't *really* consider this a bug. True, Simon shouldn't crash at all but in this case it's receiving inconsistent data so the only "fix" I could offer would be to fail more gracefully.
Thanks for your help. I just made a fresh installation of Linux Mint 12 (and of course I reinstalled Simon). So I don't need this bug fix any more (at least, not at the moment). But thanks anyway. Probably, I will need your "fix" later - when I switch the language again.
