Description Hugo Mildenberger 2009-12-16 20:33:25 UTC

Now that solid-4.3.4-r2 is out, plasma-desktop gets signaled for a different reason from those mentioned in bug #281988.

Will attach a more complete stack dump. Here is a workaround, successfully tested with sys-apps/hal-5.4.14

Created attachment 213235 [details]
output of emerge --info =kde-base/solid-4.3.4-r2

Also using sys-apps/hal-0.5.14 and -fstack-protector-all in use flags.

Comment 3 Hugo Mildenberger 2009-12-19 17:01:40 UTC

I have been rightfully critized for not yet having filed a report to KDE's bugzilla too. Here it is: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219333

Should be fixed with solid-4.3.4-r3.
