Back in Time crashing on Kubuntu 9.04

Asked by Martin Fisher

Perhaps I was too quick in marking https://answers.launchpad.net/backintime/+question/68238 as solved. Back in Time is crashing on my fresh install of Kubuntu 9.04. The details are as below. Could anybody who understands this please tell me whether I should report it as a bug on Back in Time, or on KDE, or both. With thanks!

File a bug report as well, let me know the bug number.

It looks like it needs to be repackaged against python version 2.6.

Thanks,

Craig

This happens when the application hide systray icon (at the end of a "take snapshot" process). The "take snapshot" process is not affected. It will be fixed in the next version.

This should be fixed in 0.9.24

I have 0.9.24 installed but BiT is still crashing (but not every time). Here are the details of the last crash. Should I post it as a bug? Thanks!

I would reopen the last bug as it did not fix the crash.
