Can you please show us the Python code that triggered the crash, i. e. how you instantiate the indicator?
It seems this needs fixing in libappindicator, so that instantiation works when using the GObject constructor. ** Package changed: pygobject (Ubuntu) => libappindicator (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: libappindicator (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pygobject in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/956606 Title: python2.7 crashed with SIGSEGV in g_object_newv() Status in “libappindicator” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: See bug 956382 for more information. Using quickly, I attempted to add an indicator. It errors out (see previous bug). I adjusted for this error by removing the arguments to the indicator, which led to this crash.
