Error when attempting to close a split panel in the editor window

See original GitHub issue

Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

In the editor, I have used ‘split vertically’ to have source on the top and bottom. The split screen works fine.
On the bottom (second panel), I click on the gears icon to close to the panel and I get a popup error message suggesting to submit to github.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect to get a pop-up menu with the option to close the panel. What I see instead is an error window suggesting to submit the bug to github. The outcome is that I can’t close the split panel unless I restart Spyder.
