OpenBSD: Segfault on closing GUI

[thyssentishman]

When closing the GUI on OpenBSD, netgen segfaults.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start netgen
2. Press 'Quit' -> 'Yes'

The segfault was introduced by this commit: 7382240. Reverting it avoids the segfault.

I noticed the same behaviour, i.e., seeing a segfault in the command line upon closing the GUI. However, this stopped when I finally got around to set the PYTHONPATH in my .bashrc file.

Maybe this is the reason. The fact that the commit you refer to deals with the python interpreter could be a possible explanation. If the PYTHONPATH is not set, then dealing with it causes the segfault.

Just my 2 cents ...
