Made a minor change to my patch, in the hope that it will be used if qtwebkit isn't fixed in time for the 13.04 release.
Also, thought I'd mention that there is an easier way to apply 'the LD_PRELOAD workaround' manually: * In your personal ~/bin, create a file named skype with the following contents: #!/bin/sh LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/bin/skype & * chmod +x ~/bin/skype That's it. No need to change the .desktop file or edit in /usr at all. It works since ~/.profile contains this code: if [ -d "$HOME/bin" ] ; then PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" fi ** Patch removed: "skype_lp-1155327.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/1155327/+attachment/3609219/+files/skype_lp-1155327.patch ** Patch added: "skype_lp-1155327.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/1155327/+attachment/3621198/+files/skype_lp-1155327.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qtwebkit-source in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1155327 Title: skype crashed with SIGSEGV in malloc@plt() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtwebkit-source/+bug/1155327/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
