Description Drew Laughlin 2008-01-30 02:39:17 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

When the background image is deleted, renamed or moved, plasma continues to crash upon reloading. A link to the deleted file remains in the list, but will crash plasma if selected. One would expect the deleted file to disappear from the list when deleted/moved/renamed. also that the default background be selected should the custom one go missing.

Crash when enter a non-existant filename for wallpaper

I can confirm that trunk r767568 crashes when I enter a non-existant file in
the "Select Wallpaper Image File" filedialog. Plasma crashes right after
choosing Open, I haven't clicked Apply or OK.
Comment 2 Oliver Putz 2008-02-02 03:39:54 UTC 
I can confirm this bug with kdebase r769736. Reading an empty image seems to trigger some division by zero or something the like in renderthread.cpp. My backtrace for this crash (patched with the patch from bug #157105) is:

Application: Plasma Workspace (plasma), signal SIGABRT

This is fixed now with r769787 in trunk and r769788 in the 4.0-branch. Seems we missed the 4.0.1-tagging just some days what means, it will be part of 4.0.2. Thank you all three for the feedback! :-)

For people who cannot update yet their KDE 4: the configuration line for the desktop wallpaper is in the file
$KDEHOME/share/config/plasma-appletsrc
and in that file you look for
wallpaper=
and you delete that line.
