Version: 2.0 (using KDE 4.0.3) Installed from: Fedora RPMs Compiler: gcc version 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8) (GCC) OS: Linux if you go into settings/edit current profile/appearance, every instance of konsole that is running dies. I ran konsole from konsole and tried this in the child app and the parent died also.
Created attachment 24790 [details] strace of aborting program I have attached an strace output. Cheers
Hello, I need a backtrace to debug the problem. The output from strace is not very useful I'm afraid. If the KDE crash dialog appears then please copy and paste the backtrace from there. Otherwise install debugging packages for KDE and run konsole from gdb as follows: gdb konsole > set args --nofork > run When it crashes > backtrace And copy the output
running debuginfo-install as I write. Back soon with results
Created attachment 24794 [details] gdb output Backtrace did not give out much. I installed about 500Mb debuginfo packages to get to this. Did I miss out something?
> Did I miss out something? No, the assert failure message in the terminal actually has enough information. It seems to be related to handling of existing Konsole/KDE 3 colour schemes.
Until a fix is released you can work around the bug by removing any KDE 3 Konsole colour schemes you have have installed, files ending in .schema typically found in ~/.kde/share/apps/konsole/
SVN commit 808591 by knight: Fix assert failure when handling invalid KDE 3 color scheme data files. Just report a warning instead. CCBUG: 162154 M +23 -14 ColorScheme.cpp M +2 -2 ColorScheme.h WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=808591
SVN commit 808593 by knight: Fix assert failure if a KDE 3 color scheme called ".schema" is found. Print a warning instead. CCBUG: 162154 M +6 -1 ColorScheme.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=808593
Workaround in place. Thanks & Cheers
Marking as fixed, as this is not being backported to KDE 4.0.
