Description michael@smith-li.com 2005-04-29 17:21:41 UTC
When I open a new (blank) document in Kate, and then try to save it using ctrl-s, Kate will crash.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Kate
2. Open new blank document
3. Save (ctrl-s: [file] -> [save] does not crash)
4. Either name the file and hit <enter> or hit <esc> to cancel the save.
Actual Results:  
Kate crashed/the window disappeared and the KDE crash handler appeared. If I had
asked to save the document in step 4 above, the document *does* appear to be saved.

Expected Results:  
Kate should have remained open after saving the file.

I can reproduce this more than 9/10 times. Sometimes, however, Kate flickers,
but does not crash.

If you want system info please let me know what kind of system information would
be useful.

I assume you're using KDE 3.3?

Yes, 3.3. It looks like the same bug, thanks for the upstream link. I'm changing this to Resolved-upstream. If that's not correct, please tell me, I'm new to this whole bug-posting thing.

Peace
