emerge --info kactivitymanagerd

Hello.

I constantly find core dumps in my home directory created by kactivitymanagerd.
I don't use KDE plasma session, I don't start kactivitymanagerd manually, but I do use some of the KDE applications. kactivitymanagerd somehow started for me automatically.

I'll gladly provide more info.

Please fix.

backtrace

Backtrace from core dump. It seems I need to rebuild many huge libraries with debug symbols. But even now it looks much like backtrace from bug 581068.
However, I have qt-5.7.1 installed.

backtrace

I've rebuilt all the libraries with debug symbols and here's a complete backtrace.

It appears the while the patch discussed in bug #581068 is part of 5.7 branch, it did not make 5.7.1.
Comment 4 Coacher 2017-01-23 18:23:12 UTC
Upstream bug says 'Fix Version/s: 5.8.0'. Waiting for Qt-5.8 to land in tree to test.

Feel free to apply the patch to 5.7.1 as well then.

Re-backported to 5.7.1-r1.

Comment 7 Coacher 2017-01-27 16:04:08 UTC
Sadly 5.7.1-r1 doesn't fix the problem for me.

$ emerge -pqv qtcore
[ebuild   R   ] dev-qt/qtcore-5.7.1-r1  USE="icu -debug -systemd {-test}"

Do I need to rebuild kactivitymanagerd or smth else?
Comment 8 Coacher 2017-02-01 18:59:10 UTC
I haven't seen any more crashes since update to qtcore-5.7.1-r1.
I removed all coredumps prior to rebooting my machine after qtcore update from 5.7.1 to 5.7.1-r1. After reboot there was a fresh coredump from kactivitymanagerd, but none since then. I assume that coredump could have been created during shutdown, while kactivitymanagerd still had 5.7.1 loaded in memory. I forgot to check timestamps and quickly removed it.

I'll keep an eye for any new coredumps, but it looks like the problem is solved.
Thanks!
