Bug#582006: qtiplot: Returns Segmentation fault when uses python

[Dimitris Tambakopoulos]

Package: qtiplot
Version: 0.9.7.10+r1453-1+b1
Severity: important
Tags: squeeze

I was running Qtiplot on Debian Squeeze for quite a time also using python
scripts. Suddenly it stopped running giving me segmentation fault on the start
up and I found out the the problem is with python. I first deleted the
configuration file and it started properly but If I choose python as scripting
language or try to execute any python script which was working before it closes
with segmentation fault.
 Furthermore, setting muParser as the default scripting language on my old
configuration file made qtiplot runnable but again if I set python as default I
get a segmentation fault.

My default python version is 2.5.5 but I get the same fault if I change the
link of /usr/share/python to /usr/share/python2.6

Finally qtiplot is the official squeeze version (0.9.7.10+r1453-1+b1)
