I was able to trace the python code that is triggering the assert. Basically, it is the following sequence:
view = self.parent() At this point view is a subclass of QMainWindow and view.parent() returns None Calling view.size() causes the assert to be triggered. Interestingly the assert is only triggered the second time this code is run, which tells me that probably the underlying Qt object corresponding to view has been deleted. view is the main window of the application, there is reference to it kept at the python level. Note that this is only one instance where the assert is triggered, I am fairly certain that there will be several unrelated code paths throughout calibre that will trigger it, given the various crashes I have experienced. Reading the SIP changelog, one thing of note: The QMainWindow subclass has multiple inheritance. It is defined as class EbookViewer(MainWindow, Ui_EbookViewer): where Ui_EbookViewer comes from a compiled .ui file and MainWindow is a simple subclass of QMainWindow. The definition of EbookViewer is here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kovid/calibre/trunk/view/head:/src/calibre/gui2/viewer/main.py#L171 and the MainWindow class is: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kovid/calibre/trunk/view/head:/src/calibre/gui2/main_window.py#L90 Let me know if there's anything else I can do.
