Comment 1 tt_1 2018-03-30 19:04:00 UTC 
=quodlibet-3.9.1 works just fine, so if not someone would like to rebase a fix, it's best to go ahead and stabilise 3.9.1 or even 4.0.2
Comment 2 tt_1 2018-03-30 19:06:30 UTC 
upon removing =quodlibet-3.9.1, I get this message

/var/tmp/portage/._unmerge_/media-sound/quodlibet-3.9.1/temp/environment: line 2843: xdg-utils_desktop_database_update: command not found

shall I open a new bug for that? ,__,
Comment 3 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2018-03-31 12:32:16 UTC 
(Note that there was no segmentation fault.)
Comment 4 tt_1 2018-04-24 15:39:36 UTC 
Yeah, I got fooled by the traceback message and because I can't read python errors that well. 

My suggestion would be to go ahead and stabilize 3.9.1
Comment 5 Matthias Maier gentoo-dev 2018-06-05 19:53:14 UTC 
Fixed on amd64/x86 by bug #654058
