Description Dale Glass 2012-12-24 12:07:40 EST 
On systems without Gnome installed, like the KDE version of Fedora, it fails to start at all. Program exits with a SIGTERM. Stack trace:

#0  0x4296a930 in __nptl_create_event () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
#1  0x4296c377 in pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.1 () from /lib/libpthread.so.0

Checked that creating an empty script makes it happy.

Marking this bug a duplicate of Bug #5820.

tl;dr: it was an SDL bug, we've fixed it if you want to build SDL2 yourself, and we'll supply a fixed SDL binary in the next build.
