Hi Joachim,

Indeed on a few Linux distros, there is a crash when selecting Help >
About.  We're trying to track down the cause.  The error happens in
our pure Python code and the segfault happens in the libtcl8.5 shared
library.

If you're checking for the PyMOL version number, please use
"get_version" in the meantime.

Cheers,

-- Jason
