Description J Feiner 2005-11-24 08:58:47 UTC
KWord opens fine and I can open documents fine, but when I click in the 
document and start typing, it immediately freezes, and runs up the CPU to 
100%.  It never unfreezes and I have to kill it. 
 
I'm reporting this here in case it is a Gentoo issue.  I'm using KOffice 
1.4.2. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open KWord 
2.Try to type something in the document 
3. 
 
Actual Results:  
Freeze and CPU goes to 100% 

Expected Results:  
Letters to appear in document.

Comment 1 Gregorio Guidi (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-24 12:48:26 UTC
Maybe it is related to spellchecking, is it on? 
Do you get any message if you run kword from a console? 
Comment 2 J Feiner 2005-11-24 16:46:06 UTC
Spellchecking is off.  Running from the console gives no messages.  It just 
freezes.  I also tried a special debug option --sync (don't know what it does, 
but thought it might change things or give me useful info).  The result was 
the same when running without any special command line flags. 
Comment 3 J Feiner 2005-12-25 06:43:57 UTC
I upgraded to 1.4.2-r7 and this bug is still there.  I'll gladly provide more information if needed as I would really like this to be fixed (obviously, KWord is completely unusable for me).  I am also wondering whether I should report this bug to upstream?
Comment 4 Tiago Freire 2006-04-19 06:29:18 UTC
It also happens with kword 1.5.0

Comment 5 Tiago Freire 2006-04-19 13:44:42 UTC
I have reemerged aspell-0.60.4, kdelibs-3.5.2-r3 and koffice-1.5.0 in this order, and the problem disappeared. I had mucked with -fvisibility-inlines-hidden , -ffast-math and LDFLAGS before, so my guess is that something was borked by them. revdep-rebuild did not complain about broken stuff, so my guess is that it was a miscompilation due to unsupported flags...
Try reemerging those packages and see if it gets fixed.
Comment 6 Gregorio Guidi (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-31 09:46:14 UTC
I assume this is not reproducible anymore, otherwise please reopen.
