I have the same problem in 5.5.1 and 6.1:

I set a breakpoint somewhere in a procedure that is executed by a combobox event (i.e. action event). When I pull down
the combobox and select an item the combobox event executes, the debugger stops at the breakpoint and my Linux System
gets a complete freeze. So I have to restart my PC.

Thank you for that greatly quick answer. And yes, that exactly is what I mean (bug #6517045). So I will try this.
