Description Dale Snell 2010-03-04 20:50:18 UTC
abrt 1.0.7 detected a crash.

architecture: i686
cmdline: /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/gonvert
comment: This is very repeatable, though abrt reports a different error for each time I do it, apparently responding to the differing "typos" I used.  Evidently gonvert is not checking the validity of the input data before trying to use it.
component: gonvert
executable: /usr/bin/gonvert
kernel: 2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.i686

How to reproduce
-----
1. Launch gonvert
2. Select Temperature
3. Mis-type a number; i.e., 3t instead of 35.  Boom.

Comment 8 Dale Snell 2010-04-13 20:17:30 UTC
Alas, abrt still complains.  As before, I just typed an invalid character along with the valid one(s).  Here's the backtrace:

gonvert:540:top:ValueError: invalid literal for float(): 3e

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gonvert", line 540, in top
    value = float(entry2.get_text())

Fixed!  I ran it on both i686 and x86_64 machines without a crash.

Comment 16 Walter 2010-05-17 04:45:48 UTC
I installed this and have not seen the browser crash, but for the first time EVER I see that Pidgin crashed at a time when the laptop should have been idle.  I generated a report on the crash.
