Details

When installing Ghostwriter without having an older version installed and at least once run before (so that ~/.config/ghostwriter/ghostwriter.conf exists), the application crashes:

Thread 1 "ghostwriter" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Steps to reproduce:
- Remove ~/.config/ghostwriter/ghostwriter.conf
- Start Ghostwriter 2.0.1-1

Steps to mitigate
- Downgrade to Ghostwriter 1.8.1-4
- Run Ghostwriter once, so that a valid `~/.config/ghostwriter/ghostwriter.conf` file is created
- Update to Ghostwriter 2.0.1-1
