Version: 1.9 (using KDE 3.5.0, PLD Linux Distribution) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.6 (PLD Linux) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.14 I've opened a page in aKregator. Then I selected "Send link address..." from main menu. KMail composer appeared. I selected "configure kmail" from menu, then "add" in identities, entered name for new identity and pressed OK. Crash. Repeatable. When I launched KMail from kicker it worked well. Then I closed KMail and tried to add third identity running KMail from aKregator it crashes again.
It also crashes when I try to modify existing identity.
If you have a useful backtrace from the crash, please paste it here
Unfortunatelly I don't. If you need it, I can rebuild with debug information and try to provide the backtrace. Which packages need to be rebuild to provide useful bactrace? kdepim? kdelibs?
recompiling kdelibs and kdepim with debugging support should be enough to get a good backtrace.
OK, here comes the backtrace: ----------------------------------------------- Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/libthread_db.so.1". `system-supplied DSO at 0xffffe000' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.

Please also note that it is version 3.5.2 now. Plus some minor patches (every distro adds some). If there is anything more I can do to help, please ask.
The act of adding a new identity requires that there be an open KMail main window. When KMail is started by Akregator using kapp->invokeMailer() this is not true, KMKernel::getKMMainWidget() returns 0, so the identity dialog segfaults when trying to initialise its FolderRequesters... I'm working on a way to guarantee a mainwin and thus kmmainwidget when the config dialog is started.
SVN commit 645673 by wstephens: Ensure that there is a KMMainWidget before showing the config dialog, as parts of the config (identitydialog) depend on its existence.
