Description Petr Ostadal 2005-09-18 10:44:54 UTC 
When I update my machine at home from SL9.3 to SL10.0, WindowMaker segfaults
immediately after login.

How reproduce it? ;( (reupdate my computer again;))

backtrace from coredump:

I didn't set severity to blocker, because the bug can depend on my WindowMaker
configuration.
Comment 1 Petr Ostadal 2005-09-18 23:14:49 UTC 
I found, that problematic place is following line in
~/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker :"WorkspaceSpecificBack = ((), (), (), (), (),
(), (), ());"
I don't know where the line was taken, but with line above it segfaults after SL
update.
Comment 2 Vladimir Nadvornik 2006-02-02 11:18:44 UTC 
fixed for 10.1 beta4
