Segfault when using umlauts

[adlerweb]

When composing a new tweet or reply corebird consistently crashes with a segfault if I type space after a word including a umlaut (äöüß…). The problem doesn't occur if i finish the tweet without using space. The problem also occurs when pasting a text containing this pattern

Examples:

"This is a test" -> works "This is a täst" -> works "This is a täst " -> crash

Tested with corebird 1.7.3 and trunk (b298aa45815f56205e8b757a65cf2b680212f070) on arch/amd64 via AUR. Both clean installs, observed on multiple systems.

Since they where mentioned:

• hspell 1.3 and 1.4
• enchant 2.1.2 (-2 and -3, afaik without hspell-support)
• gspell 1.6.1-2

Can't reproduce this. Not sure if you're using the German layout though, maybe that makes a difference. I'm using English (US, International) and I frequently use umlauts, but it never resulted in a crash. Not in the past, and not in the current trunk.

Yes, german layout, but since it also happens while pasting text this shouldn't matter. Still duplicate of #784, so closing here. Installing a localized dictionary (in my case hunspell-de) solved the problem for me.
