Bug#439973: boson: Segmentation Fault on startup

[Robert Hart]

Package: boson
Version: 0.13-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Running boson on my system gives the following output:

$ boson
[int main(int, char**)] Boson 0.13 is starting...
[int main(int, char**)] resolving GL, GLX and GLU symbols
Segmentation fault

An strace finishes with:
