I cannot attach the core dump here (probably hit the size limit) so I have uploaded it at http://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/core-amaya.25971.bz2

And yes, Amaya defaults to ~/Documents directory which doesn't exist for me. That could be one reason (certainly not an excuse) for the crash.

Unfortunately I cannot access http://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/core-amaya.25971.bz2

I never tested fc11.
Could you try with a ~/Documents directory created to see if the crash occurs when the directory is created by Amaya?

I will keep NEEDINFO on me, and will try to reinstall Amaya sometimes later.
