Several similar bugs with tracebacks ending in 'ValueError: invalid literal for int():' have been marked as duplicated of this one. We do not yet fully understand the root cause of this class of bugs and this symptom may indeed represent several underlying causes.

If you are an original reporter of this bug (and receive this note by email), we would still very much appreciate log files from the crash if you are able to reproduce it. If so please attach the files to your original bug and un-link it as a duplicate. Thanks!
