[PyQt] My first PyQt plasmoid crashes

[linuxoidoz at yahoo.com.au]

Hello,

I am trying to write my first plasmoid in PyQt but when I try to view it in plasmaviewer it crashes with segmentation fault "Executable: plasmoidviewer PID: 23063 Signal: 11 (Segmentation fault)", here's the log:

Here's my main.py file below. I have a stand alone application and it works fine. It must be something to do with plasma. What am I doing wrong? Will greatly appreciate your help. Thank you.
