Description of problem: gnome-dictionary will hang when given a string longer than 225 characters. Clearly this is an extremely rare case, but it could still be avoided. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.0 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open gnome-dictionary. 2. Put more than 225 characters in the "Word:" box. 3. Click "Look Up Word" . Actual results: Hang. Expected results: gnome-dictionary attempts to look up the word. Additional info: while gnome-dictionary is hanging, this line is repeated in strace: read(20, "", 4096) = 0
Looks like this got fixed upstream, and is now in rawhide. Since this is an edge case, I don't see the need to push to FC2. Marking RAWHIDE.
