Sadly, Tribler does not support Python 3.12 yet. Even Python 3.11 is still an open issue: #7282. We only support Python 3.10 at this moment.

This situation is caused by one of our dependencies (namely libtorrent). The good news is that once this does get fixed, both Python 3.11 and Python 3.12 should be supported.

Until we get a fix, #7282 is a duplicate of this issue and (as we don't allow duplicate issues) I'll close this one. If you run Tribler with Python 3.10 and still get a segfault, please reopen this.
