Cvpcb crashes after 5-10 minutes of work.

[Alexander Korotkevich]

May be related to the Bug# 1735604, may be not. This is why I file it separately. (UPDATE: the bugs are not related. After workaround described in the comments to Bug#1735604 Cvpcb still crashes. PCBnew and Gerberview have no troubles, spent several hours in them yesterday.)

After calling Cvpcb from eeschema the whole KiCAD crashes after few minutes of work.
(UPDATE) The error line in terminal:
*** longjmp causes uninitialized stack frame ***: kicad terminated

This issue was present in 4.0.6 and still is in 4.0.7. May be this can be related as well:

I repeat configuration description from the bug# 1735604 and attach the whole debug log as an attachment.

Just in case I attach the project files. All I was trying to do was to associate one pin connectors with some footprint. Usually crash happens when I browse through the list of possible connectors.

Any test needs to be run by me? Any additional info needed?

I encourage you to download .pretty libraries yoy want to use, and use a *local copy* on disk, and see if you still have crashes.
looks like a library (for some reason) has a issue:
see the message:
/var/tmp/portage/sci-electronics/kicad-4.0.7/work/kicad-4.0.7/common/fp_lib_table.cpp(172): assert "aFootprintName == (wxString) fpid.GetFootprintName()" failed in FootprintLoad(). [in thread 7fade2ffd700]

Using local libraries avoid many issues (no longer existing libs, different footprints...)

Sometimes it's surprising how doing a search with the relevant part of the error message can help. Try "longjmp causes uninitialized stack frame" and the first google hit https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9191668/error-longjmp-causes-uninitialized-stack-frame combined with the hint from your data "Curl version:..." makes me think it may be a bug somewhere else than kicad. The described bug in curl was old and fixed but you never know...
