Are you able to do some more debugging to find out where in the QgsMapToolIdentify::identifyVectorLayer function the crash is happening?

A simple technique is to put the line:

std::cerr<<+FILE+<<+LINE+<<'\
';

throughout the src/gui/qgsmaptoolidentify.cc file, recompile (make install in the gui directory will be sufficient), run qgis, cause the crash, and see what line number it got up to, and then keep adding those lines until you've found the line of code that is causing the crash.

My QGIS has the same behavior only when I close the "Identify Features" window with the x Button at the UR window corner. When I close the window with the "close" button all works fine.

  • Status changed from Open to Closed
  • Resolution set to fixed

Fixed in SVN 15bde541 (SVN r5759). All it took was that last clue...
