Linux studio build 0.8.4 crashes on startup.

(From here: https://github.com/harfang3d/harfang3d/releases/download/v3.2.6/studio-0.8.4-ubuntu64.zip).

Splash screen briefly displays then it disappears, no console output.

Previous version runs fine on this machine. Ubuntu 22.04. Replicate on another Ubuntu 22.04 machine. nvidia gpu.

I tried a little debugging in gdb:

Hi !
This is unfortunate. Thanks for reporting the issue, we will look into it.
At first glance it could be related to a recent change in the way we handle the asset compiler while Studio is running, but we of course need to investigate.
