Hi everybody

lately aMule, which I use very day, is crashing randomly but often, giving me no error messages.
I tried to update to V. 2.2.2, but nothing changed. 
I run it on Ubuntu Hardy 64 bit.
Is it a know bug? How can I solve it? 

Thanks to anyone answering

How to post useful backtraces

This is the logfile... it's in Italian, but I guess you can figure out what everything mean:

Do you need other info? Just let me know

[Stu Redman]

Was that last log entry at the time it crashed ?
Activate "Preferencatios/filteros/Messagios/filtero all messagios" (or whatever it's called in Italian  ). There might be a rogue client crashing aMule with an invalid packet. That would explain why it suddenly started crashing randomly if it worked before and you changed nothing else.

[RockKeyman]

That' what I think... it crashes, and without any warning, this should not be this way.
I solved (so far, it didn't crash anymore), but it's sure just a workaround.
I would like to report this as a bug to developers, but how?? I can send the backtrace, but I don't know much more to help them (even if, I guess they'd immediately understand where is the problem).

Thanks everybody

This "bug" has been around for way too long, and always only in ubuntu it seems, for some reason.

Please foolow http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Backtraces to create useful backtraces, then once that's done disable the filtering, and run aMule with gdb. Once it crashes, post the backtrace as per the instruction in that page.
