Explorer won't start after Preferences saved

 

Hi,

Sorry to do it here but I still can't raise a bug in Launchpad using IE8.

I have just been trying out the latest version of Explorer and if it saves your preferences then it subsequently crashes on startup.
[
Open BzrExplorer
Go to 'Setup and personalise Bazaar'->Options->Toolbar Style
change to icon only
close BzrExplorer then reopen it
]

The command window shows:
QVariant::load(QDataStream &s): type list unknown to QVariant.

And the following error dialog is shown:
[cid:image001.png@01CAA4AE.4F60F720]


If you delete explorer.conf then it starts OK again.

When broken the contents of explorer.conf is:
[Preferences]
advanced-commands-terminal=false
app-suite=qbzr
bags-to-blacklist=@Variant(\0\0\0\x7f\0\0\0\x5list\0)
bind-branches-by-default=false
clothes-to-wear=@Variant(\0\0\0\x7f\0\0\0\x5list\0)
custom-dialog-branch=true
custom-dialog-checkout=true
custom-dialog-init=true
custom-dialog-switch=true
location-selector-style=tabs
status-auto-refresh=true
toolbar-contents=kind-specific
toolbar-style=icon-only
workingtree-style=qbrowse
workspace-model=feature-branches

My environment is:

Windows XP
Bzr-Explorer 1.0.0dev
QBzr 0.18.0dev
Bzrlib 2.1.0rc1
Python 2.5.4
