comment
-----
I did not notice that gedit crashed. I closed it discarding changes and it went away, but then the abrt notice popped up.

Prior to closing gedit, I was editing a 157K XML file that has only 18 lines, one of which is very long and the rest of which are under 80 characters long. I was breaking the long line between certain tags and noticed that gedit would lag, presumably because it was rewrapping the remainder of the long line. I do not know if this has anything to do with the crash, but it is the only thing out of the ordinary that I can think of.

How to reproduce
-----
1. Edit file with long line in gedit with line wrapping on (no word breaking).
2. Repeatedly choose a spot and press enter to break line into smaller lines.
3. Close discarding changes.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2010-11-03 18:46:30 UTC 
This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '12'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2010-12-03 16:50:45 UTC 
Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
