Description Unknown 2009-04-11 01:27:39 UTC 
Version:           2.9.4 (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When I go to the "quick options" tab in yakuake and I change either width or height, yakuake crashes for me. I'm running yakuake 2.9.4 in Jaunty (Gnome). The terminal output is

> yakuake 
> KCrash: Application 'yakuake' crashing...

I can reproduce this bug on my Fedora 10 too, using Yakuake 2.9.4 with KDE 4.2.2.

SVN commit 952380 by hein:

Fix crash when changing the window width/height from the
menu with Qt 4.5. While Qt probably shouldn't crash here
(well, it looks to be a race condition), the workaround
also happens to generally improve the efficiency of win-
dow size changes.

Thanks! Do you know which version will contain the fix?
Comment 5 Eike Hein 2009-04-11 20:41:40 UTC 
Yes, version 2.9.5, which should be released fairly soon. However, this release contains a fair amount of string changes and I have not yet announced string freeze to the translators -- and string freeze needs to be sufficiently long to give them a fair chance to catch up and complete their translations. So don't expect "soon" to mean "tomorrow" :-).

it also crashes when trying to change it via the menu option right bottom of screen.
I'm using gnome desktop
with ubuntu 9.04
Comment 8 Eike Hein 2009-06-10 01:56:22 UTC 
I'm not sure what you mean with "also" here, since this report is about a crash that happened with Qt 4.5 and Yakuake versions earlier than 2.9.5 when using the Width/Height options in the menu available from the middle of the three buttons in the bottom-right of the default skin. Since you write "menu option right bottom of screen", you appear to be talking about the same thing. 

Are you saying that you're still seeing this crash with version 2.9.5 or higher (the current version is 2.9.6 at the time of this writing), or are you talking about a crash under different circumstances entirely?
Comment 9 Nico Heiligers 2009-06-10 10:46:15 UTC 
Sorry should have check that first , indeed i'm running version 2.9.4 
never realised that ubuntu is so far behind with the updates.

Ps do you know where i can download the latest BINARIES , because i only sees source code files.

regards
Nico
