      Hello.  I was requested to submit a ticket/bug-report for Picard (which overall is awesome by the way) for it segfaulting repeatedly when prompting for login.  I am unfortunately hard-tied to the 10.12 version of OSX as I often have to use this system with a pricy piece of audio hardware that does not support newer versions of OSX.

       

      This is discussed here:https://community.metabrainz.org/t/authorization-request-is-on-a-loop/431540/18

       

      When I receive the pop-up prompting login (even though the preferences says I am logged in), I click yes, copy the code returned from the website, and then paste the code in, only to have the application segfault.  If I click "yes" and then click 'cancel', the application will crash every single time. Oftentimes, even if I click ‘no’ the application segfaults as well. 

       

      This repeated prompting to login (when the preferences dialogue indicates that I am already currently logged in) is particularly painful in that I will keep making attempts to get the auth code accepted, and even if it is accepted and the application does not crash, I again get prompted some time later.  So it's not like a successful auth even persists within an actively running instantiation of the application.

       

      I was trying to post the segfault details reported by OSX for both when the fault occurs during trying to apply the valid OAuth code as well as for a fault when I select "No" to login....however I am unable to submit a full segfault output due to this site's error "The entered text is too long. It exceeds the allowed limit of 32,767 characters."...so I am adding the segfault outputs as text attachments.
