Twinklebear's SDL2 tutorial lesson 1 segmentation fault

SDL Development
1

I’m trying to follow Twinklebear’s SDL2 tutorial. Lesson 0 compiled and ran properly so I assume I set up SDL2 correctly. Now I’m trying to do Lesson 1
http://www.willusher.io/sdl2%20tutorials/2013/08/17/lesson-1-hello-world

and the program crashes with a segmentation fault. It compiles without errors or warnings.

make and compile step
g++ -o Lesson1 Lesson1.c++ -std=c++11 sdl-config --libs -lSDL_ttf -lSDL2 -ILessons/include

output when I run is:
after window
after renderer
imagePath /home/rm/Lessons/res/Lesson1/hello.bmp
after load bmp

[2]+ Segmentation fault (core dumped) ./Lesson1

I get similar errors when I try to run Lesson6.
It seems that a call to SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface is responsible, but the two pointers given in the parameters are not nullptr. I don’t understand how I could proceed from here on.
This was posted before but the issue was never resolved.
