[mythtv-users] Finding cause of segmentation fault

[Stefan D]

Thank you both for your help. Cleaning out plugins and filters got me a
little bit further. The frontend starts, but when i try to select a new
theme i get:

I must have messed up something pretty bad, or making a upgrade of Ubuntu
is not a good idea. I know i've made this mistake several years ago, and
that is why i never upgraded my 12.04, because it always ends wit a
complete reinstall. I was hoping that i could avoid it this time, but it
seems to be hard.
