[Bug 228067] Re: lyx 1.5.3-1 crashes as soon as it starts

[Thomas Dreibholz]

I also have the LyX crash problem on Hardy i386. Removing ~/.config/Trolltech* did not solve the problem. After compiling the sources (from apt-get source lyx) with --enable-debug, I got the following stack trace:

Since I did not have the time to further track down the problem, I have
finally removed the lyx binary package, downloaded the latest 1.5.5
sources from http://www.lyx.org and installed the self-compiled
binaries. This works for my system, without any changes to Qt4, etc.
