Bug#868315: kanatest: Kanatest cannot start, segfaults

[Ed Peguillan III]

Package: kanatest
Version: 0.4.8-3+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

I installed Kanatest via apt and tried to start it from XFCE's
applications menu. It wouldn't start. Trying to start it from a terminal
doesn't give much information:

$ kanatest 
Segmentation fault

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I tried to start Kanatest from the applications menu, and from the
terminal, but it crashes.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Kanatest crashes - segmentation fault.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

   Kanatest should have started normally.
