FYI, Sylpheed-Claws is not known to be unstable, whatever you install it from the FC packages or from the sources. More about your concern: - what Fedora Core is yours? - what did you install actually from claws.sylpheed.org? 'cause the download pages points to the FC5 extras RPMs as well as to some unofficial ones. Knowing the extra location and package name would help. - how did you crash Sylpheed-Claws, just starting it? Regards, -- wwp
