Binary package hint: metacity On an Oneiric i386 system in a unity-2d session, metacity 1:2.34.0-0ubuntu1 crashed with SIGABRT in __kernel_vsyscall(). This appeared to occur immediately after running a command with sudo 1.7.4p6-1ubuntu1 for the first time since rebooting. The crash occurred while I was being prompted for my password, so I don't believe it's caused by the specific command I ran with sudo. I have not been able to reproduce this crash. I have tried running a command with sudo again shortly thereafter, then again after running "sudo -k", and then again after running "sudo -K", then again in a separate Terminal window, but the crash did not recur. It's quite possible that the crash occurring right after I used sudo was a coincidence, and that there is no causal relationship between sudo and this metacity crash. About twenty seconds after this crash occurred, the recurring crash documented in bug 788714 happened. I have no particular reason to think that crash is related either, though it's notable that they're both SIGABRT's. Finally, it is worth noting that this crash looks a lot like the old, unresolved crash from Lucid Beta 1 described in bug 543193. Perhaps this should be marked as a duplicate of that bug (or that bug marked a - duplicate of this one). + duplicate of this one). Or perhaps not--the backtraces don't look + particularly similar (though it will be easier to tell if and when an + automatic retrace takes place for this bug).
