All I can suggest for now is to build with --disable-threads. In a threaded build, certain use-cases currently lead to deadlocks like yours and Paweł's. We're working on it--sorry for the inconvenience.Okay, no rush and thank you for your efforts—but whoa, --disable-threads leads to a segmentation fault on program start!

[ snipped ] This is a long shot: one difference between the way Balsa starts up in an unthreaded build versus a threaded build is that it does not explicitly call g_type_init. That call has supposedly been redundant for a long time, currently because both gtk_init_with_args and gtk_application_run call it. And even if the GType system isn't initialized, it's supposed to complain. But perhaps all that gets somehow circumvented... Anyway, attached is a patch that moves that (redundant) call from thread-specific code to unconditionally compiled code. Could you check to see if it helps? Like I wrote, it's a long shot... Best, Peter
