That message is coming from Qt, which doesn't know about Python exceptions.
I'm guessing it's referring to C++ exceptions, which you won't catch in Pyt=
hon
via an excepthook or "except".
So the question is why there's a C++ exception thrown, and from where... No
idea how to debug that to be honest. Maybe you can get gdb to break on any
exception or something?

The first step is to get some more information regarding the exception
trace. The exception traceback has tb_frame and tb_next attributes to
build a frames stack. Each frame has its own frame.f_code.co_name,
frame.f_code.co_filename, frame.f_lineno and local stack variables
(frame.f_locals).

Thanks for the suggestions guys!
I added a faulthandler to my application and added an exception handler in =
an overridden
QApplication.notify and it pointed me to a queue implementation i have, tha=
t uses signals/slots for input
and output, and it seems that a exception happens in there and only on Linu=
x.
I'm still hunting it down, but at least now I know where to look.
This SO post also helped me to figure out that exceptions in a slot are som=
etimes not propagated up:
