replacing text in the editor (Ctrl-R) offers the ability to use the regexp editor to generate a regexp query. Doing so causes kate to crash after the replace is performed with a SIGARBT (6). Typing the regexp into the search/replace dialog manually doesn't seem to produce this behaviour. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open a file in kate 2. Ctrl-R and select the 'Edit' button for a regexp query 3. build a simple regexp in the editor, hit OK 4. hit OK to perform the search/replace Actual Results: kate crashes after confirming number of changes made Expected Results: not crashed (!) vanilla sources, kde-3.1
which qt do you use? is this fixed in kde-3.1.1?
qt 3.1.0 IIRC. I haven't emerged kde 3.1.1 so can't tell if it's been fixed yet
Canot reproduce with kdebase 3.1.1a, qt 3.1.2-r2. If it still happens for you, try running kate from a terminal and seeing if it outputs anything interesting, or build kdebase with debugging (USE=debug) and get a backtrace. Also give us your emerge info.
Unable to reproduce too. Please reopen with a backtrace if this problem persists with the latest qt and kde packages.
