[SOLVED] Sailfish Toolkit installer crashing on Ubuntu
 
I'm trying to install the Sailfish Developer Toolkit, to hopefully port Saera to it. Whenever I try to install it in Ubuntu, however, the installer gets a few questions in - as far as the "Select install directory" - and then freezes for a minute or so, at which point my entire window manager crashes. I can't see what happens in a terminal because of the aformentioned crash; any ideas to debug this?

Start the installer from commandline and redirect the output to a file... ;-)

Code:

cd directory/where/binary/is/located
./name_of_install_binary > SDT_logfile.txt 2>&1

Here is my SDT_logfile.txt. Anyone have any suggestions?

Update: I installed Fluxbox, and ran the installer from within a Fluxbox session; it completed fine with no issues. SDK is now running well in Unity; so I guess I found a workaround, even if I still have no idea what the problem was.
