Can you reproduce this bug? If you can, can you start Kontact from Konsole, try to reproduce the crash, and then paste the shell output from Konsole here? (the "ASSERT" line). Thanks you
I am not sure it will be so easy to reproduce especialy if I need to run it from a konsole (that's not my usual way of starting it, but I will try to remember to do it). One thing I can add is that the "empty trash bin" feature was not working OK shortly before it crashed. Asking for it seems to have no effect whatsoever on the content of the trash bin which was keeping all the deleted email in it. This is on the second or third request to empty the trash bin that kontact went belly up with SIGABRT.
It's easy. You need to: - Close Kontact- - Open Konsole - Type "kontact" and press Return Kontact will start - Try to reproduce the crash Kontact will crash - Go back to the Konsole window and check the output... It should be an "Assert" line (one of the last ones)..., - Copy that "ASSERT" line and paste it here. If you don't want to do this, you'll need to download a bunch of packages to get debug symbols.
Andrés, I know how to do it. It is just that it is easy to forget to do it on one session and then miss a crash ... So I am going to try another way by puting a shell wrapper arround the kontact binary. Something like: #!/bin/sh kontact.org > /tmp/kontact.log 2>&1 I guess that should do it and next time it happens I will have the traces in /tmp/kontact.log.
Andrés, So here is the kontact log output when it get SIGABORT: ....

Thanks a lot :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 174839 ***
