Re: Red-Carpet - Segmentation Fault

I too was frustrated by this for the longest time until I read a
suggestion (either in bugzilla or another Ximian list) to blow away
everything in /var/cache/redcarpet and then re-run red-carpet. 
Red-carpet rebuilds that directory if it finds it missing.  That worked
for me.  I read a later post that suggested that all you have to get rid
of is /var/cache/redcarpet/icons.  Give that a try.  I don't think you
can hurt anything that way other than losing cached packages in
/var/cache/redcarpet/packages if you do decide to trash everything.
