Hi Pranith,

Thanks for your bug report.
I've looked at kupfer's bugs in launchpad, and one of them seems to be
similar to your bug[0]: It also deals with a sigsev in libglib.

Could you say me what you think about it ?

Regards,
 Hugo

Ok, I've forwarded your problem on launchpad, and I'll wait for an
answer. This type of bugs is always *long* to solve if upstream isn't
really responsive.

I'll also look at it to see if I'm able to develop a patch.

Thanks,
 Hugo
