[Pkg-lyx-devel] QWidgetPrivate::beginSharedPainter: Painter is already active lyx: SIGSEGV signal caught

[Emanoil Kotsev]

Hi,
thanks for your explanations and comments.

OK, I agree with you and most of all I'm thankful for responding so fast and 
pointing me to the unstable version, which solved the problem for me. I 
should have a look at the changes done to come up with a discussion on the 
issue, but no time for now.

The only question still open is why the QT got upgraded then, if not all 
related bugs got solved, because this seems to be the trigger for the 
trouble.
Well, finally, as you said that's what testing is good for.
In general I'm aware of the "danger" so I do a complete system backup and 
upgrade afterwards ;-) once a month. It works for me as a safe way to profit 
from testing.

Kind regards
