Is the problem new with the updated version of picard, or was it already
there? If it's not new, I don't think that should block the update, if
it is then maybe look at bisecting commits or at least trying the
various 2.9.0b# releases.

You could try running it from a console window (possibly under egdb;
there is some support for python things in there) after setting DISPLAY=:0
to see if you get more information.
There are also the various steps in README in the xenocara source tree
for capturing core dumps from the X server.
