Public bug reported: I am currently trying to build a QT App with PyQT4 and gconf. When importing gconf, the app crashes:
My sample app: import sys, os from PyQt4.QtGui import * from PyQt4.QtCore import * import gconf ######################################################################## # Main function ######################################################################## def main(args): # Get App App = QApplication(args) # Get MainWindow MainWindow = QMainWindow() MainWindow.show() # Exec App & return exit statement from App sys.exit(App.exec_()) ######################################################################## # ######################################################################## if __name__=="__main__": main(sys.argv) The output: $ python c_main2.py Segmentation fault If I remove the 'import gconf' statement, the app works fine. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Release: 10.04 $ apt-cache policy python-gconf python-gconf: Installé : 2.28.0-1ubuntu1 Candidat : 2.28.0-1ubuntu1 Table de version : *** 2.28.0-1ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy python-qt4 python-qt4: Installé : 4.7.3-1ubuntu2~lucid1~ppa2 Candidat : 4.7.3-1ubuntu2~lucid1~ppa2 Table de version : *** 4.7.3-1ubuntu2~lucid1~ppa2 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-dx-team/une/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4.7.2-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages ** Affects: gnome-python (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- python-gconf makes QT app crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641157 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-python in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
