Thank you for reporting! May I relegate you to upstream's bug tracker? It looks like the problem is unknown yet. http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/issues/new
I'm currenctly working on packaging the next release. I'll include this quick patch to at least stop QGIS from crashing: https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/commit/10041327ea89172961c23e02ecf5e58f15774479

Dave, please post a link to upstream's ticket, in case you informed them.
(In reply to comment #5) > Dave, please post a link to upstream's ticket, in case you informed them. Hi Volker, I did nothing more than answer your comment. Do I still need to post anything??? (Complete Beginner in Bugzilla-land!) Dave
The bug you reported went to me in the first place. I'm the maintainer of the QGIS package for Fedora. When I get such a report, I'll first try to find out, if the problem is specific to Fedora. If it is not specific to Fedora, it is of interest for the QGIS developers (=upstream), because it likely affects all users. The developers might already be aware of the problem. Maybe they even solved it already. In that case, my job is as easy as finding the solution and apply it. The case you describe is not Fedora specific and seemingly was not known before. At least I couldn't find it on http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/issues/ . In that situation it is often the best solution, if you create a ticket there. That's good practice for various reasons: - You actually witnessed the problem - You are most likely to be able to reproduce it or test a fix - The package maintainer might forget to create a ticket upstream In our case, I directly contacted one of the QGIS developers, because I didn't find anything in the bug tracker. He created a quick fix, that at least won't crash QGIS. The cause of the problem is NOT removed by that. It just doesn't crash the whole application. If you can find the time, please create a ticket upstream! I have incorporated this quick fix into the QGIS 1.7 package. This package will go the updates-testing repository within the next couple of hours.

Where should I open this "new" ticket - I'm not at all sure where on earth I am!!!!! Dave
You are in the bug tracker of Fedora (and Red Hat). In relation to Fedora, most software projects are "upstream" in the flow of development. That basically means: - Some developer develops some software - Some Fedora packager picks up a release of that software and creates a package - You, as a Fedora user install and use this package I AM NOT a QGIS developer and no other QGIS developers read this bug tracker, as it devoted to Fedora. You witnessed an error in QGIS. So you should create a ticket describing your problem in the QGIS bug tracker, which is here: http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/issues/new Create a ticket there and then post a link to that ticket here, so I know where I have to look.
qgis-1.7.0-4.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/qgis-1.7.0-4.fc15

Hi Volker, Thanks for taking the trouble to show me around! Ticket is filed (I hope!) as [Quantum GIS Desktop - Bug #4063] If I can do anything else to help, please let me know! (But be aware you'll probably need to guide me around a bit!) Schoenes Wochenende Dave
