Sorry to wake up such an old thread, but I am seeing this on my Mageia 6 system. Let me know if this should be in a new thread.
The problem is that Sigil crashes when I attempt to reorder the chapter files. After moving the file, the tree in the Book Browser is weird. if I right click on the empty space, Sigil crashes.
I have attached screenshots of the GUI to show what the Book Browser looks like before I moved Chapter 2 up above the index and after I moved it. I have also attached a very small epub book that I use to cause the crash. I simply move Chapter 2 from below the Index to above it.
After attempting to move the Chapter 2 file, Sigil crashes when I right click on the blank space to open a context menu. This happens on the 0.9.8 version installed from the Mageia repos. It also happens on a 0.9.10 version that I built from source.
Here is the system information for the Mageia 6 computer
Code:
System: Host: mageia6 Kernel: 4.14.70-desktop-2.mga6 x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.12.2
Distro: Mageia 6 mga6
Qt 5.9.4
Interesting enough, this problem does not show up on my Mint system with Sigil version 0.9.5
Code:
System: Host: LinuxMain Kernel: 4.4.0-137-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.8.9
Distro: Linux Mint 18.1 Serena
Qt 5.6.1
It could be a difference in Plasma 5, a difference in Qt, or a difference in Sigil version. I don't know.
Not being able to reorder the chapters is kind of a serious flaw. I can change the order by unzipping the epub file and editing the content.opf file, but that is a pain.
Trying to trouble shoot this, I ran my 0.9.10 version in gdb and did a backtrace after it crashed. I don't know if this is of any help, but here is the top of the stack at the crash. No debug info compiled in, so it is probably of marginal use.
