[Eric] segmentation fault with Eric4-4.3.8 on SUSE 11.1_x64

[Arndt Meier]

Hi!

Eric4 starts its IDE and all is well. I get a message "eric4 has not been configured yet. The configuration dialog will be started. OK". Whether or not I press "OK", after some 30 seconds eric4 just crashes with no error message in the bash shell other than segfault:

> eric4
Warning: translation file 'qt_en_GB'could not be loaded.
Using default.
Warning: translation file 'eric4_en_GB'could not be loaded.
Using default.
Warning: translation file 'qscintilla_en_GB'could not be loaded.
Using default.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

ls -lrt  shows
-rw-------  1 meiera users 91054080 2009-10-29 10:42 core.32758

And even stranger, gdb does not understand the core dump
~> gdb core.32758 /usr/local/bin/eric4

"/home/meiera/core.32758": not in executable format: File format not recognized
"/usr/local/bin/eric4" is not a core dump: File format not recognized
(gdb) bt
No stack.

Starting a minimalistic eric:
eric4 --nosplash --noopen  --nokde
and not doing/touching anything, again after some 30 seconds eric4 crashes and again there is a pseudo core dump
-rw-------  1 meiera users 76963840 2009-10-29 11:10 core.402
that gdb again cannot read (as above).

I am running:
openSUSE 11.1_x64
Qt 4.5.2
QScintilla-gpl-2.4
PyQt-x11-gpl-4.6.1
sip-4.9.1
python 2.6.2
python-kde4 4.3.1-2.3

Any help in resolving this error is greatly appreciated.
