Description

QGIS consistently crashes when I run the following script in the Python console.

from qgis.core import (
    QgsVectorLayer,
    QgsField, QgsFields, 

    # QgsFeatureSource,
    # QgsFeatureSink,
    # QgsProject,
    QgsWkbTypes,
    QgsVectorFileWriter,
)

baseDir = "/Users/mitchell/Dropbox/python/import_gpx" 
gpxFile = f"{baseDir}/../gps/Waypoints_01-MAR-18.gpx" 

sourceLayer = QgsVectorLayer(gpxFile, "testFile", "GPX")

error, errormsg = QgsVectorFileWriter.writeAsVectorFormat(
    layer=sourceLayer,
    fileName="test.gpkg",
    fileEncoding="utf-8",
    destCRS=QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem('EPSG:4326'),
    driverName="GPKG",
    )
if error:
    print(f"{error} --- {errormsg}")
 

I have attached the crash report.

This is wrong and will produce an invalid layer (there is not "GPX" provider, use "ogr" instead):

sourceLayer = QgsVectorLayer(gpxFile, "testFile", "GPX")

btw, a crash is not nice.
