Hello,
  I recently upgraded to Ethereal 0.9.2 (with GTK+ 1.2.10, GLib 1.2.10,
libpcap 0.6, libz 1.1.3, UCD SNMP 4.2.3).  I now get a Segmentation Fault
when launching a capture, but only under teh following circumstances (and
it appears it may be more related to GTK than Ethereal; but thought I'd
start here).  I do not recall this occurring under 0.9.1.
  If I launch Ethereal; Select Capture|Start...; Click Filter and then
double-click the filter I want; Ethereal Seg Faults with the following:

Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkstyle.c: line 3931
(gtk_style_get_prop_experimental): assertion `style != NULL' failed.


If I follow- the same steps, but instead of double-clicking my filter
selection, I single click and select OK and then click OK on the Capture
Options window all runs fine.

Has anyone else seen this?  Any suggestions to correct this? (Besides not
double-clicking my selection <g>)  Should I consider upgrading to GTK+ 2.0
(as I see this is now listed as a stable release).

Thanks,
 Scott
