Segfault

[username227]

Hi,

I am getting a segfault when trying to run this program, and I was wondering if anyone has come across it before or how to fix. I am running it on Arch with Python 3.12. Here are the details:

Thanks for your help.

I think I recall what's going on here. Python 3.11 is the last version that PySide2 was compatible with. The Debian project has patched it to add support for Python 3.12, but this is probably not the case for Arch Linux.

In any case, I'd suggest testing with PySide6, which does support Python 3.12. Just keep in mind that Arch Linux is not a platform we support, so you may encounter more issues down the road :/

Closing this issue, but feel free to open a new one if you encounter something else.
