Segmentation Fault - Client on Linux when checkin

[dgrabla]

Is there a better place where to report crashes? The linux server seems rock solid, but the linux client crashes constantly, probably not because plastic but because the mono libraries. It is too unstable to be used in production. Is there anybody at Plastic using Linux/Mac as their main development platform?

How to reproduce

Linux x64 Debian Wheezy

Plastic 4.1.10.382.

Run plastic client, open default workspace, pending changes, checkin (Accept checkin without comment, it also breaks when writing a comment first)

- Please notice this is just an example, there are many places where the app crashes, but this one is consistent

Workaround

Command line works fine

> cm checkin

The selected items are about to be checked in. Please wait ...

Hi,

wow, that's an ugly error. I'll try to test it with the same distro in order to try to reproduce it.

It's a pity due to the client in linux is, usually, pretty stable. We have more than 1000 users in a single company using the Linux GUI through an X server.
