[Discuss-gnuradio] gqrx segfaults: rtlsdr_read_async returned with -5

[M Dammer]

I have updated my gnuradio installation via pybombs today.
Gqrx is no longer working with my RTL-SDR dongle. The gui loads, but the
moment when I start the receiver it works for about a second and then it
crashes with:
rtlsdr_read_async returned with -5
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I tried different sample rates, but I cannot get it work. To be on the
safe side I rebuilt gr-iqbal and gr-osmosdr and then gqrx, but that does
not fix it. Other applications (gr-air-modes) work well with the new
build and do not crash.

Here is a complete dump of a session:
