The qtbase-abi-5-15-6 transition is still on-going[0], so any 5-15-6
packages should not be installed yet.  You must downgrade any you have
installed back to 5-15-4.

Did you maybe forget to attach some files before sending this message?
I ask because your bug report is very light on details.  You only say
that 5.0.37-6 crashes with SIGABRT, but not what version you used
before and where it crashes.  You don't provide any stderr output or
logs either.  And if you have gdb installed and your APT preferences
are on testing-debug you are clearly skilled enough to install -dbgsym
packages and provide a stack backtrace.  I currently have no
information I can work with.

The change in 5.0.37-6 was tiny and I doubt it broke something.  But
maybe you're running into #1021125: liblinphone10:amd64 5.0.37-6 is
already linked against soci/4.0.3-1, but liblime0 5.0.37+dfsg-4 is
still linked against soci/4.0.1-5 and there was an ABI break.  You'd
have to downgrade to 5.0.37-5 and soci 4.0.1-5 and wait until either
that bug gets fixed or lime will be rebuilt and reuploaded.

Regards.
