[apport] mythtv crashed with SIGSEGV

[BeBoxer]

Binary package hint: mythtv

I'm not sure exactly what happened. The mythtv frontend often starts in a mode where it goes straight to live tv and if I hit Esc it just exists. I was trying to find some keypress which would get me back to the menus when it hung. I ended up hitting Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to kill X to get out of it.

Are you able to reproduce this problem with the latest version of mythtv in Feisty? Several crash bugs have been resolved in a more recent upload. Thanks!

this sounds like the problem i am currently having with ubuntu feisty mythtv-setup, on a brand new install.
it does a sigsegv almost right away. if i run mythtv-setup with "-v all" i get the following right before it
dies:

:
:
2007-05-07 17:15:38.356 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE value = 'TVVidModeHeight0' AND hostname = 'ixtac' ;
2007-05-07 17:15:38.358 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE value = 'TVVidModeHeight0' AND hostname IS NULL;
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

and if i run if from gdb (even though i dont have a version with debug symbols) it reports the following:

:

Thanks for taking the time to report this however it has been rejected due to the following reason:

Rejected as the supplied stack trace is unsuitable for svn.mythtv.org GardenGnome and Superm1 are to work on making the packages provide suitable traces etc for upstream bug reports
