Well I would normally run strace or gdb on the program to see where it
is segfaulting. I would also check the OpenSuSE bug database to see if
its a known issue. To trace it in gdb, I normally do a


gdb aide
run --init
<wait for it to crash>
backtrace

then send that information to the list to see if its something
codewise or something that OpenSuSE needs to deal with.
