[mythtv-users] MythTV 0.19 crashing left and right on Debian unstable

[Kenneth Falck]

I just upgraded to MythTV 0.19, and it crashes a lot. 0.18.1 used to 
work perfectly. It seems that every time a recording starts, or even 
sometimes when playback ends, mythbackend throws a SIGSEGV. Using gdb, I 
can see that this happens in different places in the source (SIParser, 
Scheduler, ...), but the backtrace always seems to lead to a class 
beginning with 'Q' (i.e. the Qt library, usually QMap).

First I tried this with the marillat binary packages and upgraded Debian 
to the latest in unstable (kernel 2.6.15). Then I tried to compile 
MythTV release-0-19-fixes myself, both release and debug, and I'm 
getting basically the same crashes constantly.

Any advice? Is it a Debian problem?
