Hello,

It happened several time on different software installations such as Wine or
flash player, or also external package for my printer driver for instance.
It also happened just when launching the app. But the app was still there
even if a crash was reported. Don't know exactly what was happening then.
Since then, I completely removed my installation, so I can't tell you if it
still happens.

Sorry if I can't help you much.

Emmanuel
