Package: scrollkeeper
Version: 0.3.14-10
Followup-For: Bug #337889

I can confirm that the current version of scrollkeeper (0.3.14-10) is
crashing when calling "scrollkeeper-update" on at least one of my machines.

The stacktrace makes it look as if this could actually be a bug in
libxml2. Hard to say without knowing how scrollkeeper calls into libxml:

I put a core file at http://gutschke.com/markus/scrollkeeper-core.bz2
I hope that will help debugging the problem and in figuring out whether
this is a bug in libxml2 or in scrollkeeper.
