Details

Description:
hgview segfaults before displaying the log window. Downgrading python2-sip to 4.14.7-1 (and therefore also python2-pyqt4 to 4.10.2-2) fixes the issue.


Additional info:
hgview 1.7.1-1
python2-pyqt4 4.10.3-1
python2-sip 4.15.1-1


Steps to reproduce:
Attached.

Edit:
Same thing happens to edit and tortoisehg, seems to be related to python2-pyqt4 and/or python2-sip related.
   gdb-hgview.txt (6.3 KiB)

Thank you for report. It is interesting, because hgview does not use it's own precompiled libraries, so it should be independent from sip and pyqt4 updates. I will look into it ASAP.

Do other PyQt applications work for you, for example "eric" editor?

eric (which I have never used) segfaults even with the downgraded packages. tortoisehg (which is the what I actually care about) segfaults with the latest packages but works with the downgraded packages.

I see, then this seems to be unrelated to hgview itself, it's rather python2-sip or python2-pyqt4. I'll adjust and reassign this ticket to BaSh - last packager of python2-pyqt4 and python2-sip, because it seems to be more general issue.

Anyway, do you have all packages updated to latest releases? Also, make sure that mirror you use is in sync and working.
