Request about GTK+ bugs

[Owen Taylor <otaylor redhat com>]

Partly because of Elijah Newren's excellent work at 
finding crashes that might be GTK+ related, and reassigning
them appropriately, we are getting a spate of reported
GTK+ crashes without reproduction instructions.

Unfortunately, most bug buddy crash reports have neither:

 - Operating system/distribution and version
 - Exact GTK+ version
 - Any information about how GNOME was installed

Which makes the bug report rather useless.

So, the request I'd make is that you see a bug that you
even think might be GTK+ related, you immediately 
request the above pieces of information from the reporter.

Also, if it seems that the reporter is running stock
GTK+ and Red Hat Linux 9 and can reproduce the crash, 
getting them to install:

http://people.redhat.com/otaylor/tmp/gtk2-debuginfo-2.2.1-4.i386.rpm

and produce a new stack trace would be very useful.

Thanks,
					Owen
