Doesn't crash here on x86_64 with testing enabled. BTW, lines in your dump file are wrapped.

Ah it will crash if you enter something into the Nickname field.
Yeah sorry about the weird dumpfile I couldn't seem to capture it via the shell, so I just saved the screen buffer.
I am up to date on x86_64 no testing.

I can reproduce it now.

Is this an upstream bug?

Update: Yes. Also, they don't have a Linux version for the new release, only svn, and the latest version from svn doesn't compile.

This bug has been open for 1 year and 3 months.

Since the latest release is not available for Linux (but for osx and win) and since the latest version from svn does not compile, how about moving the package to unsupported?

I want and will keep the package in community. electricsheep-preferences is only an helper app. The main app works fine.

It seem that it's fixed in SVN revision 1313 ( http://us.generation-nt.com/answer/bug-562230-usr-bin-electricsheep-preferences-segmentation-fault-help-168946631.html ). I'll see if I can make a patch.
