Apvlv Segmentation Fault

After opening a few files apvlv crashes during an opening process and throws a Segmentation Fault error.
The error occurs irregular, it doent depend on how many files i have opened or how their sizes are.

I installed the freetype2 with the infinality path though i read somewhere that there could lie the problem.
And set the .apvlvinfo in the home dir to readonly.

Any suggestions?
Can i somehow get apvlv into a verbose mode to see what causes the error?

Re: Apvlv Segmentation Fault

Where did you get it from? [community], AUR (there are 2 packages), some unofficial user repo?

Does it look like this https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18154 ?

Nope not the same issue.
Im alway using the same pdf file and sometimes it crashed( i can open the same file 5 times and at the 6th time the error occurs)
I tried several versions. Using this right now:

One year passed, still the same issue.
Is there something new on this topic?

Re: Apvlv Segmentation Fault

interesting, apvlv has always worked well for me. do you have an ~/.apvlvrc file? iirc when I had this issue I added

set content = no 

and that fixed it.
