Bug 115475 – konqueror-3.5.0-r1 crashes when using right click to go back in history

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM

[Description Gregg Casillo 2005-12-13 15:28:36 UTC]

I have had this problem since upgrading from the latest 3.4.x version to 
3.5.0. I have the setting enabled that allows me to go back on page in the 
browser's history by simply right clicking (Configure Konqueror - Web Behavior 
- Mouse Behavior - [X] Right click goes back in history). 
 
Lately when browsing eBay listings, if I right click to go back, the browser 
has crashed. Completely disappears from the monitor it is on. This problem is 
sporadic though. It does not happen all the time. I am unsure whether clicking 
the back button in the menu will cause the browser to crash, but I do not 
believe it does (rarely use that). I am also unsure if this happens on other 
sites; I've been hitting eBay mostly the last week or two. 
 
I'd let this slide, but I use this "right click to go back" feature quite a 
bit. It's a damn good feature that I miss when I use Firefox at work. Not sure 
what else I can tell you to clue you in, but here's my emerge info FYI:

You may want to try running konqueror inside of gdb to see if you can get a 
backtrace, but you'll probably want to notify the konqueror devs at 
bugs.kde.org so they can investigate and hopefully patch the problem.
