Bug 21726 – KMail 1.5.2 (KDE 3.1.2) crashes very often

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Miguel Revilla Rodríguez 2003-05-26 15:13:04 UTC]

After starting KMail the first time it works for 5-10 minutes (sometimes a bit more, sometimes a 
bit less, but always around that) and then it crashes with signal 11. If I try to run it again, it will 
crash immediately. It doesn't matter if use it or not, during the working time I can read and mail 
seamlessly or just look at it without touching a single key, it will crash anyway. Also it's 
important to say that I don't have this kind of problems in any other application, whether KDE 
or not. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start KMail 
2. Wait for the first crash (5-10 minutes). 
3. Trying to start it again will produce always a crash. 
Actual Results:  
KMail keeps crashing. 

Expected Results:  
KMail should not crash (at least not so oftenly).

KMail's crash backtrace.

This is the usual backtrace of a crash.

When you upgraded to KDE 3.1.2, did you also upgrade the kdenetwork and kdepim 
packages?

Yes, the whole KDE is updated to 3.1.2. It probably has to do with the update of some other 
package, because I've just remember that kmail crashed a couple of times one or two days 
before updating from KDE 3.1.1a to 3.1.2.

It doesn't krash for me. Maybe you could try to search kde's bugzilla, or report a bug there.

Yep, gonna request that you file this bug report with bugs.kde.org so they can fix it in their 
cvs.
