Version: 2.5.6 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Kate crashes when I close files quickly. I use the tab extension. I have this bug quite often.
Please provide exact steps to reproduce the problem and a backtrace. Information on creating backtraces is at http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
Open multiple files. Close then one after another. I do not have this bug each time I do this. Here is the stack trace : Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".

It's a widget style bug, please report at the Polyester maintainers.
