Bug#666119: gnome-settings: random segfault

[Lionel Vaux]

Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 3.2.2-3
Severity: normal
File: gnome-settings

Hi,

I have just experienced a strange bug: with no apparent cause,
gnome-settings-daemon segfaulted once and restarted.
The only reason I noticed it was that the decorations of all windows
disappeared for a few seconds. And the only further info I can provide
is the following line in syslog:

kernel: [84564.793837] gnome-settings-[9269]: segfault at 10 ip 00007f6291f0272e sp 00007f628cc1dc10 error 6 in libglib-2.0.so.0.300 0.2[7f6291ea1000+f6000]

Everything seemed to work fine afterwards, but I figure that any segfault is
potentially important.

Best,
Lionel.
