Thunderbird crashes Segmentation fault when attempting to attach a file. SOLVED by new profile
When I try to attach a file, either using the "Attach" button or trough the menu, Thunderbird first freezes for a few seconds and then crashes. The only message in the terminal is "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" (more output is below).
I remember to have the same problem months ago which was probably resolved by an update. However it appears again since last week after a system/Thunderbird update.
Thunderbird version: Version 60.4.0

I think the problem was somewhere in the config files of my profile.
I copied the profile folder to another location, deinstalled Thunderbird, removed its folder in my home, installed it again. After setting up a new profile and adding an email account the attachment function worked. But when I replaced the new profile by the old one (copied files from old folder to the new one) the attachment function did not work anymore.
So, the solution for me was to reinstall Thunderbird, and to create a new profile and email accounts. :/

Maybe there is a crash report you can post.
in thunderbird Help > Troubleshooting Information click on 'Copy text to clipboard' button
In this forum question, right click in a 'Post a reply' text box and select 'Paste' You can edit/remove most of the info, but do not edit any of the 'crash reports'
If you 'Preview Reply' the crash reports should appear as clickable links so enabling access to the info.
then click on 'Post Reply'
There are not crash reports in the troubleshooting information. All I get is that (I only removed the information about the accounts):
