Package: freemind
Version: 0.9.0+dfsg2-1
Followup-For: Bug #804178

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

*** End of the template - remove these template lines ***

In order to try and narrow down the cause of this error, I set the DEBUG environment variable so that freemind.sh would tell me the command to actually start freemind itself.  I then repeatedly called this command line from the terminal, cutting out jars, to find out the cause of the problem.

My minimal command (note I had increased the memory allocation to see if this was part of the problem) was

/usr/bin/java -Xmx512M -Dfreemind.base.dir=/usr/share/freemind -cp /usr/share/freemind/lib/freemind.jar:/usr/share/freemind/lib/bindings.jar freemind.main.FreeMindStarter

which then displayed the freemind splash screen and output the following line on the terminal
Checking Java Version...

I checked with htop that it was not using lots of CPU (ie it was not looping) and then killed it as follows

kill -QUIT <pid>

This produced the following dump
