severity 75465 important
thanks

Greetings!  I cannot reproduce this either on my system nor any of the
Debian porterboxes.

You might be able to get a bit more useful information from gdb thus:

(gdb) set env MAXIMA_PREFIX /usr/lib/maxima/5.33.0/
(gdb) handle SIGSEGV nostop noprint
(gdb) b error
(gdb) r -eval '(run)'

This and 'strace -f maxima' would be helpful.

Take care,
