        Operating System: GNU/Linux

    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The 4.3.90 release candidate exits with a SIGABRT raised from a failed
qt_assert, due to some error in the Qt help full text search indexing that
happens in the background automatically when the GUI starts.

I can only reproduce this bug when running Octave as a Flatpak containerized
application. I do plan on investigating further and adding information as I
go, but I wanted to at least log this against the current release candidate,
maybe someone else sees this error in a different runtime environment.
