 When Qgis starts, it crashes whith this message:

 ----

 rewrewqr at ewrqwerqw:~/.config/QuantumGIS> qgis
 Python support ENABLED :-)
 Loaded : fTools (package: fTools)
 Warning: QHttp: empty path requested is invalid -- using '/'
 Loaded : Plugin Installer (package: plugin_installer)
 Violación de segmento (Segmentation fault)

 ----

 I've been looking around and I've found that the problem itself occurs
 when plugin_installer is loaded (maybe that's why if you run qgis as root
 it works until you try to use the plugin installer, because I guess
 different users have different QGIS.conf files and in root maybe the
 plugin is not activated by default, so it's not loaded at start)

 If you modify your QGIS.conf and set the string under [PythonPlugins]
 plugin_installer to false, it starts (but at soon as you select the plugin
 in the plugin manager and accept it crashes). Also is posible to start if
 you set the string under [QGis] plugin-installer\checkOnStart to false, in
 this case even if you have selected the plugin Qgis will start.

 I don't know much about debugging and stuff but I've make a dbg qgis with
 this result (I ommit a lot of lines before):

 I also attach a file from strace. Hope it helps. I am newbie reporting
 things like this.
