Comment 10 for bug 1819301

Everyone, Thanks for your time and attention.

Yes the configuration files that were uploaded were the hang-a-matic configuration files. I did copy them over and they still cause the hang. I started removing lines from the config file until pcbnew started without hanging.

I uploaded a config file where removing the first line, "canvas_type=1", causes pcbnew to start normal. Unfortunately, this line is in a working config file, so I can only guess that there is some interaction between this line and the other lines in the config file that causes unhappiness in pcbnew.
