Comment 7 for bug 1635685

Ask far as I can see the crash itself is a duplicate of bug #1016173. The fact that the SIGSEGV is caught by the app and converted to an exit code 1 is separate issue involving both the mythfrontend(.real) programme and the mythfrontend wrapper script. As things are at the moment users will be left with a desktop showing and no evidence in the logs of what happened. The crash in QFactoryLoader::Instance appears to be related to a qt image loader plugin being unloaded whilst a thread is still using it. It occurs at startup because all the pool threads are being used to load theme images.

I intend to raise an upstream bug for this and a new bug here for the wrapper problem/feature. I will close this bug as a duplicate.
