Hi Bernard,

I have installed wireshark2.01 from the wireshark stable ppa on Wily (64

The  package for vivid 64 bit works without issue though.

I just compiled 2.01 from source and it didn't crash.

Can you please post the outptu of:

    tshark -G currentprefs | grep gui.layout_type

If it is "#gui.layout_type: 1" (or something in the range 1-6) and still
crashes, then maybe some memory is scribbled. Can you try to reproduce
the issue with a clean configuration? Example:

    HOME=/tmp/wshome wireshark
I have reproduced the issue in a clean Wily VM.
And did short triaging:

#4  0x00005653770ef3e3 in main_widgets_rearrange () at
/home/vagrant/wireshark-2.0.1+g59ea380/ui/gtk/main.c:3491
3491            g_assert_not_reached();
(gdb) p prefs.gui_layout_type
$1 = layout_unused

Recompilation does not help and the preferences file is not created.

The Qt version and tshark start fine.

Cheers,
Balint
