Crossover 12 segfaults on OpenSUSE 12.2

The following seems to be a fairly isolated case, but we've posted it in case it helps any other users with similar issues

A user running OpenSUSE 12.2 with KDE 4.8.5 recently reported that after a system update, Crossover refused to launch. Trying to run Crossover via terminal:

$ /opt/cxoffice/bin/cxsetup

resulted in an immediate segfault.

It was determined that wine, itself, still worked, by launching "notepad", and also an already-installed windows app, from terminal:

$ /opt/cxoffice/bin/wine notepad
$ /opt/cxoffice/bin/wine --bottle "bottle name" --cx-app launcher.exe

So the problem was between the system and Crossover's non-wine tools, which are mostly Python. The next thing to do was to run cxsetup with gdb looking at python, which can be accomplished like so:

$ gdb python
(enter)
set args /opt/cxoffice/bin/cxsetup
(enter)
run
(enter)
bt
(enter)

The result was as follows:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The problem appears to be in /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 or /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libqtengine.so.

The user experiencing this problem ended up getting Crossover to launch successfully by removing kde3-gtk-qt-engine-0.8svn20071009-7.1.2.i586 from his system, which is what provides the "/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libqtengine.so" library. You can determine which package provides a given library via the "rpm -qf" command:

$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libqtengine.so
kde3-gtk-qt-engine-0.8svn20071009-7.1.2.i586

Note that on at least one other OpenSUSE 12.2 test system with Crossover 12, the "kde3-gtk-qt-engine-0.8svn20071009-7.1.2.i586" package is present and not causing any conflict, so, again, this appears to be an isolated case, but the above troubleshooting steps may prove a useful guide for figuring out similar problems.
