details of "1st run, crash at set preferences; unable to run after"

Upon 1st run of 11.2, (c) (two different downloads, see detailed narrative), attempted to access Preferences, immediate crash. Repeatable. Uninstalled and then installed different marked binary from web Repository, apparently same exact app in byte count and processor code (Intel binary), same initial difficulty, subsequent try worse, app would not come to front, would not quit, stayed on screen, yet amaya.bin continued to be active until "quit" from Activity Monitor (again, see details in narrative).

Detailed narrative, including crash report, steps to reproduce, etc. are lengthy, so these are contained in attached file Amaya_112_Mac_Intel_bug_report.txt.

I'm not able to reproduce that bug.
Could you send me the following file?
~/Library/Application Support/amaya/list_url_utf8.dat

I suspect a problem with the contents of that file.

I added a protection in the Amaya code, but I guess the problem concerns used libraries.
