Package: fritzing Version: 0.9.3b+dfsg-4.1 Followup-For: Bug #893462 Dear Maintainer,
I can confirm this bug on both current Stretch and Buster, as well as Stretch with the fritzing package from Unstable: when launched from a terminal, Fritzing shows its splash-screen for a prolonged period and then causes a segfault. To reproduce see OP. When started via the Applications menu (under Xfce here, if of any importance), that is by clicking the menu entry Applications->Electronics->Fritzing, the application starts up fine, shows its main window and seems usable (version 0.9.3b+dfsg-4.1). It would be nice if the command-line launcher could be repaired though. There's maybe other CLI folks like me: until I discovered by chance today that the menu entry actually launches a working fritzing, I was stuck like the OP with fritzing segfaulting every now and then when I tried launching it from the terminal, which led me to believe that this package had bitrotten and was broken - I'd have started using fritzing long ago! -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages fritzing depends on: ii fritzing-data 0.9.3b+dfsg-4.1 ii libc6 2.27-3 ii libgcc1 1:6.3.0-18+deb9u1 ii libgit2-26 0.26.0+dfsg.1-1.1+b2 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 13.0.6-1+b2 ii libqt5concurrent5 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5core5a 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5gui5 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5network5 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5printsupport5 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5serialport5 5.10.1-2 ii libqt5sql5 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5sql5-sqlite 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5svg5 5.10.1-2 ii libqt5widgets5 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libqt5xml5 5.10.1+dfsg-5 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-18+deb9u1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 fritzing recommends no packages.
