worker crashes with segmentation fault on launch

(I can't for some reason find out how to attach a CrashDump or anything else from the automatic crash-report when launching, so I have to resort to trying to describe everything by hand...)

InstallationMedia
Lubuntu 12.04 "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20120423)

Package
worker 2.18.1-1

SegvAnalysis
Skipped: missing required field "Disassembly"

Desktop Environment: openbox
Default file manager (don't know if this is relevant): PCManFM
Description of crash: When running "worker" from a terminal the result is a crash and the terminal outputs "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"

One version of worker does indeed function very well, 2.17.6-1, which I am using at the moment. I can't for the life of me figure out why the latest release of worker through apt won't run, though.
