VIFM was working normally, then, suddenly, started crashing with error message on startup: "Segmentation fault: 11"

VIFM was working normally on OSX Yosemite. My system crashed because of an unrelated issue and, when I booted it back, I noticed VIFM wouldn't open anymore. Typing "vifm" on the terminal only shows an error message:

Segmentation fault: 11

Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

I don't know what was wrong, but I managed to fix my issue by trial and error by replacing ~/.vifm/vifminfo with a brand new one, downloaded from the sources. I'm posting this here to help someone with the same problem, since I couldn't find any solution online.
