database related crash during exit

Sometimes the client crashes during exit with following error messages in the debug output:

** (gnome-ring:31292): DEBUG: quitting
QSqlQuery::prepare: database not open

** (gnome-ring:31292): WARNING **: Can't get conversation at row 0
QSqlQuery::prepare: database not open

** (gnome-ring:31292): WARNING **: Can't get conversation at row 0
QSqlQuery::prepare: database not open
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'lrc::Database::QueryError'
  what():  Driver not loaded Driver not loaded
Aborted (core dumped)

I suspect a race condition in the LRC. Something like:

  1. DB is closed
  2. a signal comes and the callback tries to access the DB's freed data structures

Since this bug is only reproducible on the GNU/Linux GNOME client I'm reporting it here.

How to reproduce:

  1. open a GNU/Linux GNOME client
  2. close it using "quit" button

This crash is pretty rare, and like most race conditions it may not be reproducible on every machine.
