oolite crashes/aborts on startup

Could it be caused by a mismatch between the versions of oolite and oolite-data? In the repositories oolite-data is at 1.65-2 and oolite at 1.65-6build2. I am going to try and get both on the same version and report back.

What graphics hardware/driver do you use?

Radeon 4330, no fglrx - just the default free driver. Shows in lspci as:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M92 LP [Mobility
Radeon HD 4300 Series]

Running Compiz most of the time, haven't noticed anything else segfaulting
that I can think of.

Initially this bug didn't affect me. The game started all right, while checking out the camera angles and other keys I pressed F11 or F12(don't remember-can't be sure); this caused the game window to close.(since I launched the game from the menu, debug output isn't available).The next time I tried to launch the game, it didn't work.(window opens and then crashs).

Erk. It looks like Oolite died with an error. When making an error
report, please copy + paste the log above into the report.

(Press Ctrl-C to continue)

My apologies;
Ignore previous comment.

I think I should make a separate bug report, since this happened with oolite version 1.74.2(not included in repos)

i think package from http://debs.oolite.org/AptSources.html could solve this problem

A number of serious bugs have been discovered in the version of the GNUstep libraries shipped with Lucid Lynx. As Oolite has been affected by these, backported versions of the GNUstep libraries are also available through this repository.

Installing these may affect your ability to run other GNUstep applications!

The generic autopackage version of Oolite is safe for use, as it is shipped with its own version of the GNUstep libraries which will not affect any other installed applications.

i tried this version (1.74.2) and no one crash till 10 launches.

Fixed in Maverick.
