Actually, I can't reproduce this issue on linux amd64, with the same ekiga/libpt/libopal tested by the submitter.
I started ekiga a few times with my existing settings (pre-upgrade). Then I purged my accounts/config with: $ gconftool --recursive-unset apps/ekiga and successfully started ekiga ~5 times. Then changed audio device from /dev/dsp1 -> libpt PulseAudio and tried ~5 more times and it is still fine. I've never seen the crash on startup (although it is a little slow to start, as it seems to be phoning home to stun.ekiga.net...). I do see the segfault at exit though (#687079). -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers testing-proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ekiga depends on: ii evolution-data-server 3.4.3-1 evolution database backend server ii gconf-service 3.2.5-1+build1 GNOME configuration database syste ii gconf2 3.2.5-1+build1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libatk1.0-0 2.4.0-2 ATK accessibility toolkit ii libavahi-client3 0.6.31-1 Avahi client library ii libavahi-common3 0.6.31-1 Avahi common library ii libavahi-glib1 0.6.31-1 Avahi GLib integration library ii libc6 2.13-35 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libebook-1.2-13 3.4.3-1 Client library for evolution addre ii libedataserver-1.2-16 3.4.3-1 Utility library for evolution data ii libgcc1 1:4.7.1-7 GCC support library ii libgconf-2-4 3.2.5-1+build1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 GDK Pixbuf library ii libglib2.0-0 2.32.3-1 GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.10-2 GTK+ graphical user interface libr ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.31-1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libnotify4 0.7.5-1 sends desktop notifications to a n ii libopal3.10.4 3.10.4~dfsg-3 Open Phone Abstraction Library - s ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpt2.10.4 2.10.4~dfsg-1 Portable Tools Library ii libsasl2-2 2.1.25.dfsg1-5 Cyrus SASL - authentication abstra ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.2.4.2-1 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.7.1-7 GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 2:1.3.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxml2 2.8.0+dfsg1-5 GNOME XML library ii libxv1 2:1.0.7-1 X11 Video extension library Versions of packages ekiga recommends: ii gvfs 1.12.3-1+b1 userspace virtual filesystem - GIO ii yelp 3.4.2-1 Help browser for GNOME Versions of packages ekiga suggests: pn asterisk <none> (no description available) pn gnugk <none> (no description available) pn mediaproxy <none> (no description available) pn rtpproxy <none> (no description available) pn ser <none> (no description available) pn siproxd <none> (no description available) pn yate <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- Steven Chamberlain ste...@pyro.eu.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
