KDE applications usually show some "developer information" after such a crash 
happened. Simply send this crashdump to the developers for further analysis. 
This will really help.

We plan to release in two weeks. It will be announced on this mailing list. 
You can subscribe to this list if you want to get this notification, too. It 
will take couple of days more until the distributions can provide the 
packages, I think.

To extend copy&paste functionality in the spreadsheet is already on our TODO-
list. Also we plan to add some support for mat files in near future. For 
computational and visualization tasks like you have now we're working already 
on a better solution where the user can do the computations inside of LabPlot 
directly using his favorite open-source computer algebra system. Check the 
examples and screenshots for Maxima and python/scipy here

https://labplot.kde.org/2016/07/23/labplot-2-3-0-released/

So, basically you do your calculations and the visualization inside of the 
same environment and there is no need to export&import the data. The arrays, 
lists, tuples, etc. you've generated in such a CAS-worksheet can be directly 
used as the input data source for the plots and curves. Support for Julia will 
come in 2.4. Support for Octave will come soon, too.
