Hello Casey C,
out of curiosity I tried to reproduce this crash in a QEMU PowerPC VM.

But in a ppc64el installation of Debian buster I could not reproduce
this crash. (Which also identifies as "Architecture: ppc64el (ppc64le)")
So probably I tried the wrong architecture.


But I have trouble to find a way to install a current Debian powerpc
installation.
Also the xenial entries point to some Ubuntu sources?

Therefore you probably can give some more information about how this
system got installed and where the packages come from.

Also in [1] are some hints how to add the debug symbols if the sources
you installed Mixxx from support the automatic debug packages.
And start Mixxx once in a debugger to get a meaningful backtrace of the
crash that can be added to this report.


One other thing to try would be to move your old .mixxx directory to
start with a clean configuration.
e.g.: mv ~/.mixxx ~/old.mixxx


Kind regards,
Bernhard
