Looking at that crash log it seems someone has put an assert in the code
- if you can start the program in a terminal you should see a message
showing where in the program (or more likely, library) this is
happening.

To test for the cause first find the directory (folder)
named .denemo-1.1.2 (it is in something which is called your home
directory, the top of your personal file hierarchy).

If you temporarily rename this and start denemo again and it does start
then suspicion falls on the file .denemo-1.1.2/denemorc or on the last
opened score, listed in the file .denemo-1.1.2/denemohistory. 
If it *does* start up, try opening the last opened file and see if that
is crashing Denemo.
Running Denemo will have created a new default version of the
folder .denemo-1.1.2, which you will want to replace with your old one
if you have a private set of short cuts and settings. Removing denemorc
and/or denemohistory will point the finger more clearly. If it is the
the denemorc file, please post that, if it is your last opened file
please send that (privately if it is confidential).

If it is none of those, then the only other thing I know of is having a
stray spurious file called denemoui.xml in the directory where Denemo is
launched. But this is wildly improbable unless you are developing Denemo
- the correct version is shipped with the binary. Plus, of course, a
corruption of the file system (re-install Denemo), again, only something
likely if you could have deleted or over-written some of the
installation...

If you can run Denemo in a terminal that would be ideal - do that first
if you can.
