[Ipopt] unexpected inequality constraints

Hi,

I am currently using pyipopt for solving a quadratic problem with linear
equality constraints.
However, I am puzzled by IPOPTS's statement:

"Number of nonzeros in inequality constraint Jacobian: 1"

There should not be any entry in whatever inequality Jacobian if I am
not having any inequality constraints (g_U = g_L), right?

Maybe that is the reason why I am running into a SEGFAULT when
evaluating the constraint Jacobian? [1]

Does anybody know how to find out what is going on?

Best,
Knut.
