[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1108183: /usr/bin/sight_viewer: sight_viewer segfaults on start

Hi Jens,

Thank you for having taken the time to wrap up that report.
I attempted to have a look at this, and results seem rather
variable depending on the context of the rendering.  I have
managed to run sight_viewer alright in virtual machine context
on Xorg, but on the same virtual machine, using a sway desktop
resulted in a crash at an earlier point than yours.

I then tried to recheck on real hardware, and this time I
reproduced the error and informational messages you report.
I'm not entirely convinced by my Xorg vs Wayland hypothesis,
because the problem reproduces whether I attempt to spawn
sight_viewer in my Wayland based Sway environment or in Xvfb
context.  In case that matters, I use an amdgpu, while I have
not injected dedicated gpu support within the virtual machine.
I may have a fresher look at this at a more reasonable hour of
the day.

I have added Flavien Bridault in carbon copy, in case he has
some ideas on the topic.  Flavien, have you run into Debian bug
#1108183 per chance, or need help to reproduce problems?

Have a nice day,  :)
