[Bug 1575630] [NEW] Crash when trying to follow symbol (F2) which is a multiply-implemented virtual method

[John Frankland]

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 16.04 (recently upgraded from 15.10), using Cinnamon desktop

Since the upgrade, when using F2 in a C++ project to jump to the implementation of a method,
if the method is virtual & several implementations are possible (access through a base pointer),
when I double click in the pop-up list of methods I get the following crash (backtrace from gdb):

Is this still valid? Can you reproduce this with latest version from Qt
(upstream)? If yes, better report this upstream and close this one
please (or link to the report there).
