Given the number of lines in log file (and gdb backtrace does not end), I cut it so it can be uploaded (otherwise it's > 4Mb)

Thanks for the update. It looks like a endless recursion caused by QAbstractScrollArea. Not sure if it's a Qt bug, though.

If you need help to test something, please let me know !
Comment 6 Albert Astals Cid 2015-09-26 09:28:56 UTC
systemsettings 4 is no longer supported, we do only support version 5

I can not reproduce this crash with the following combinations
  systemsettings 5.4.1 + Qt 5.5.0
  systemsettings 5.3.2 + Qt 5.4.1
Can you still reproduce this hang on version 5?
