Package: bblaunch Version: 0.0.3-5 Any attempt to run bblaunch on Fedora Core 2 under Fluxbox results in "Segmentation fault" with no core file. This behavior is consistent regardless of arguments used.

I deleted the line and everything works just fine. Patch is below my signoff. Please note that I cannot guarantee that this will fix anything in bblaunch other than allowing it to run with the "-d 0" option, which I use to create a borderless aterm under fluxbox.
