Error creating menu

Hey,

Since this weekend I got a error message when I try to create menus in crossover.
I can install applications but I'm not able to create the start menu entry for the application.

I use Arch Linux as my system, so I'm not sure if there was an update for python, which now creates that error.

I only get this error from crossver:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/cxoffice/lib/python/menuwidget.py", line 217, in main
self.editor.prefs.refresh()
File "/opt/cxoffice/lib/python/cxmenu.py", line 267, in refresh
self.query_config()
File "/opt/cxoffice/lib/python/cxmenu.py", line 251, in query_config
data = run_cxmenu(('--query', '--bottle', self.bottlename, '--scope', scope), grab_stdout=True)
File "/opt/cxoffice/lib/python/cxmenu.py", line 38, in run_cxmenu
raise Error(err)
Error

I tried to reinstall crossover and also recreate the bottles but nothing changed.

Regards

Since I'm on Arch too, I tried modifying my menu entries and I could do it without any problem.

At this point, I'm curious as to the method you used to install Crossover, was it with the bin file or the AUR?

No I used the bin file from codeweavers. But this night I checked my journal logs and see that there was a seg error.

So it was not arch itself or crossover. There was a memory problem. Nice to find ;)
