I've changed nothing. However, I have found the following workaround:

If I start gnucash with no options, it crashes with the error. If I
start it with gnucash --nofile, and then open the file, it doesn't
crash.

Provided this continues, then I can live with it until Edgy is released.

Thanks

Jeff
