Hi, I was trying to find a cause for this crash before finding this bug item reported here. After reading the comments I wanted to give some info on what I've found.
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 and experience the problem with latest Wireshark on master branch. I noticed it a few weeks back but didn't find time to investigate it until now. Bisecting the problem I found that the crash was introduced with the following change in Wireshark: 2cfa301 Qt: Create the main display filter combo sooner. This change is also present on 2.6 from 2.6.3 and on cherry-picked as: 3a0da5f Qt: Create the main display filter combo sooner. Removing appmenu-qt5 package didn't help for me. Neither did installing gtk2-engines-oxygen package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to appmenu-qt5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803808 Title: wireshark crashed with SIGSEGV in QIcon::~QIcon() under Unity Status in Wireshark: Won't Fix Status in appmenu-qt5 package in Ubuntu: New Status in wireshark package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: app crashed after close ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: wireshark-qt 2.6.3-1~ubuntu14.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-77.99~14.04.1-generic 3.16.7-ckt27 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-77-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.29 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Tue Oct 16 13:16:50 2018 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/wireshark InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-07-27 (1177 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20150218.1) ProcCmdline: wireshark Signal: 11 SourcePackage: wireshark StacktraceTop: QIcon::~QIcon() () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Gui.so.5 ??
