Description
I have a Nova-T dvb card, when asking mythtv-setup to scan for channels, (with listings setup to come from the epg) it crashes with a invalid pointer error.
Im useing the debian package provided by Christian Marillat.
Any ideas?

It does crash with the latest svn version, but doesnt crash when compiled with the --compile-type=debug option.
Do I try gdb without --compile-type=debug or not?

You will need to get it to crash with --compile-type=debug otherwise the backtrace is useless.
If you cannot get it to crash, then a bare minimum we'll need valgrind logs from the debug build. Please use the following valgrind command line
valgrind --tool=memcheck --error-limit=no --leak-check=full --log-file=mythtv-setup-valgrind.log -v -- mythtv-setup --verbose siparser,channel,record | tee mythtv-setup.log
and attach both mythtv-setup-valgrind.log & mythtv-setup.log

I couldn't find any suspicious memory writes from MythTV in the valgrind log :[
X11 and Qt had some suspicious writes, but they always do...
Need to test with SVN head + backtrace missing + no valgrind for memory error.
