Which plugins were they which disappeared and also, was the session
created in a previous version of ardour?

Crash reports are always appreciated! Can you duplicate these crashes?

If yes, could you either send us a detailed duplication report (starting
from creating a test session to duplicate the issue), or build a debug
version of ardour and get us a backtrace of the crash?

To get a backtrace, you need to run ardour in gdb:

user at host:~$ gdb /usr/bin/ardour
GNU gdb 6.4.90-debian

Type "show copying" to see the conditions.

This GDB was configured as "i486-linux-gnu"...Using host libthread_db
library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".

(gdb) run [parameters for ardour]

.. Then duplicate the issue. As the crash happens you should see
something like this:

Segmentation fault
(gdb) 

At the prompt, you should give the command "thread apply all bt" and
send us all output from that command.
