Hi Honza,

Hope you enjoyed your vacation!

As it turned out, even 9999 from PPA started OK after I had built 10019 from sources and used it. Then I removed ~/.upp/theide directory altogether and tried to restart: I was back to the original crash situation.

Now I just installed 10031 from PPA and removed ~/.upp/theide directory again and tried to start over -- still crashing. Then I restored my ~/.upp/theide from a backup and 10031 works with that too.

So, my conclusion is that when doing 'make install' from sources does something useful that does not get done when installing from PPA.

-- Please note: I'm not in a panic in any way. This only happens with fresh installs. Anyway, it would be nice to have this working, since many new comers might be turned away by installation problems.

Additionally, it would be nice to have the SVN source option pointing to a working SVN mirror instead of Google code with old sources.

Thanks and best regards,

Tom
