[Bug 83421] network-admin crashes (segfaults) on starting

[Phil Housley]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

The entire output is:

$ sudo network-admin
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This is on feisty, since at least the herd2 release.  Currently version
2.17.5-0ubuntu1.  The machine has 3 nics, an rtl 8139, a via rhine and
an acx111 wireless, but there are no drivers loaded for the last two.
/etc/network/interfaces has nothing at all in except for:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

When starting under gdb, I get (amongst the many "no debugging symbols
found"s):

...
[New Thread -1226033472 (LWP 8363)]
...
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread -1226033472 (LWP 8363)]
0xb75b9ea0 in g_slice_alloc () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0

If there is a dbg version of the package, I'll happily try it out
