QGIS » QGIS Application

running QGIS 1.7 (stable) on PCLinuxOS, kernel 2.6.38.8, gcc 4.5.2, QT 4.7.3
Starting QGIS and trying to read any kind of raster layer results in segfault, for example

a) from a terminal:

[pinoc@localhost ~]$ qgis
Warning: loading of qgis translation failed [/usr/share/qgis/i18n//qgis_en_US]
Warning: loading of qt translation failed [/usr/lib/qt4/translations/qt_en_US]
Python support ENABLED :-)

then when I load a raster image (just load any image file via Layer -> add raster layer) qgis will crash with:

Debug: KGlobal::locale::Warning your global KLocale is being recreated with a valid main component
instead of a fake component, this usually means you tried to call i18n related functions before your main
component was created. You should not do that since it most likely will not work
Segmentation fault
[pinoc@localhost ~]$

b) using gdb

[pinoc@localhost ~]$ gdb /usr/bin/qgis
