Critical warning while running nm-connection-editor

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't start working on it yet, because your bug report didn't include enough information.

Please include the information requested at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingNetworkManager. If you have trouble, do not hesitate to ask for more assistance. Thanks in advance.

Hello Michele,

I think I provided all the necessary information. Can you tell me what additional information do you need?

Yes, off course!

Could you please tell us which version of Ubuntu / Network Manager are you using?
Could you please attach a capture log, following the procedure described at the previous page?

Thank you!

this bug is present on Ubuntu 8.10 64 bit network-manager-0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1.8.10.1

 and Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit network-manager-0.7-0ubuntu2

capture log is empty.

I only get a warning message that I described in the original bug report.

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!

this bug is still present in network-manager-0.7.1~20090213+gitf142e15-0ubuntu1

can you get a backtrace by running connection editor in gdb with dbgsym packages installed for libnm-util1 and libnm-glib0 and network-manager-gnome?

i think that gdb should stop; you can do that by settting

export G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals

before running nm-connection-editor in gdb

thanks. its not really a bad thing, but still ... patch attached. will upstream that.

This bug was fixed in the package network-manager-applet - 0.8~a~git.20091002t194214.8515a07-0ubuntu1
