Segmentation fault from JRiver Media Center 21.x - OpenSuSE LEAP

Hi
Just to give everybody a heads up...
MediaCenter 21.x runs straight into segmentation fault on OpenSuSE LEAP. 
I have run all MediaCenter 2x.x on earlier OpenSuSE without problems.  I installed by running alien on the Debian package.  But, after upgrading to OpenSuSE LEAP... No luck!  The only error message I get is simply Segmentation fault.

Mike Noe:
Are you running x86-64 version?  If so, try the i386 version.  Still, most likey a req'd libs mismatch of some sort.

I've found it nearly impossible to get x86-64 working with TumbleWeed due to req'd libs.  i386, OTOH, seems to always work fine.  Granted, TW is rolling and this is to be expected, but Leap, while not considered rolling, is still teething and, of course, MediaCenter is not really supported on anything other than Debian-based...

You could also try extracting the necessary files from the .deb manually and building an installable rpm with togo (or something comparable).  I've had luck in the past with the x86-64 version using this approach, but I'm not sure why.  Alien is *maybe* doing a bit more than just what a manual effort creates, YMMV.

roald.andresen:
No, I'm running i386 version.   The same as I did when running OpenSuSE 13.2.  So it is certainly Leap that causes the problem.
I will give the manual building process a try.  Thanks for the tips.  I'll come back with results either when I'm done or when I've given up.

Mike Noe:
Also, check the boost version in Leap.  I think  a recent MC build either changed boost req'd libs or maybe Leap got an upgrade to boost 6?

roald.andresen:
Nope.  Manual build didn't help.
As to the boost version: I'm a bit confused about the version.  From what I can tell, I have version 1.54 installed, so I am not sure how that relates to boost 6.
Anyhow, it seems that I'm stuck.  So I guess I'll be using more native Linux programs for a while.
