Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate an useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system

Attached is a minimal example to recreate this problem. It is caused when a QTimer is created in an object with double inheritance. I presume it is an issue in Sip.

I don't have any sip4-qt3 package in Karmic repositories. Or is it the same package as sip4?

$ apt-cache policy sip4-qt3
W: Unable to locate package sip4-qt3
$ apt-cache policy sip4
sip4:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 4.9-1
  Version table:

Also, my bug (#453745) has been marked as duplicate of this bug, but I don't have sip4 installed ... so is it not a duplicate?
