I think that I can repeat the crash: well, it's happened twice, doing the same thing (attempting a VFS mount of a file share from a Windows laptop that requires authentication). So I installed bugbuddy so that it could phone home to the GNOME folks to tell them what was up, but although the _process_ seems to have worked, and a bug registered, it wasn't able to find a core dump, and the core dump wouldn't have had much useful symbolic info, anyway. So: what's happened to nautilus' .core file? Is there some fancy clean-up mechanism going on? I imagine so: that must be how bugbuddy gets invoked in the first place. Can this be overriden so that I can get a core file to point gdb at? Secondly: is there a convenient port-build global knob for turning on debugging symbols? Anything more complicated than CFLAGS+=-g in /etc/make.conf? Cheers, -- Andrew
