Hi,
I find this extremely strange because it would mean there's a bug in a library but for some reason it's happening and I can't seem to fix it.
All software which uses the GNUstep libraries is broken in 10.10 and 10.04, it segfaults upon launch.
For example:
$ Terminal
2010-10-18 15:41:15.869 Terminal[6690] Problem posting notification: <NSException: 0xc2ba60> NAME:NSRangeException REASON:index is out of range in function _attributesAtIndexEffectiveRange() INFO:(nil)
Segmentation fault
Going a bit further reveals more about the issue, it seems to be a problem in a library

Is anybody else experiencing this? It doesn't happen in Debian but I've encountered it on both 10.04 and 10.10
Thanks
