Description wilbert 2003-03-25 17:25:35 UTC

Version:           3.1.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc versie 3.2.1 
OS:          Linux

When I have a line
127.0.0.1		localhost  obelix.wbsoft.nl
in /etc/hosts, kprinter crashes while it tries to fetch data from the local CUPS server, saying "kdecore (KSocket): ERROR: KExtendedSocket::connectionEvent() called 
 but no data available!"

When I change the line to
127.0.0.1		obelix.wbsoft.nl localhost
it works fine.

Somehow, and I don't know why, the QDns used by KExtendedSocket finish their 
lookups but return no results. This is also similar to bug #56263, probably even the 
same cause.

The problem is rather severe, because _any_application_ will crash as soon the print dialog is 
brought up.
