So it could be something with using the latest version of the kernel, glibc, 
qt or some other library, perhaps something with threading. Fun. I was hoping 
it was something simpler, like something missing from the database, but I 
guess it's not easy to reproduce. I'm using the tv_grab_no from XMLTV to fetch 
program data. I tried to delete all program data manually though, and the 
program guide still segfaulted. Is it normal for this to happen when there is 
no program data?
 
Actually, I have managed to enter the program guide without it crashing if I 
went into the program listing view (programs by letter) first, but it still 
crashes most of the time. It always crashes when entering from watching TV. 
Since it has worked a few times I suspected it might be some library problem 
or something with threading. It's strange not more people have run into this 
though.
