Comment 2 for bug 1473082

Please paste the result of selecting the Help->Copy Version Information from the main menu into this bug report so we know how KiCad was built. I'm assuming you have a valid internet connection since you are using the GitHub plugin to access the footprint libraries on-line. I've never seen this bug before even when GitHub calls fail so it may be due to your build environment. In any even, KiCad shouldn't crash when a github access attempt fails.
