[Qgis-user] Segmentation fault running QGis 2.8 python API

[Raphael Dubois]

Hello,

I am using QGis API with python2.7. My script worked perfectly with QGis 
2.6, but since I upgraded it to 2.8 there are random errors occurring.
I use it on a headless server, so I call my script with xvfb-run, like that:
xvfb-run -a python myscript.py myconfig.xml

The segmentation fault (sometimes) occurs just at the beginning, when I 
launch QGis and instanciate my "QgisInitializer" class:
qgisprefix = '/usr'
sys.path.insert(0, qgisprefix+'/share/qgis/python')
sys.path.insert(1, qgisprefix+'/share/qgis/python/plugins')
qgis.core.QgsApplication.setPrefixPath(qgisprefix, True)
qgis.core.QgsApplication.initQgis()
self.appQgis = qgis.core.QgsApplication([], True)
self.canvas = qgis.gui.QgsMapCanvas()

Sometimes I have this segmentation fault, sometimes this error:
*** Error in `python': free(): invalid pointer: 0x00007fff1c6e7850 ***

...and sometimes it works. I must say I am lost here. Can anyone help ? 
Are those known bugs ?

Thank you,
