Description Jonas Thorell 2011-01-08 03:17:44 UTC
Application: systemsettings (1.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.5.95 (4.6 RC2)
Qt Version: 4.7.1
Operating System: Linux 2.6.34.7-0.7-desktop x86_64
Distribution: "openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64)"

-- Information about the crash:
I was going to check my locale-settings to see if they're correct. System-settings launches as it should but the locale kcm-module immediately crashed when trying to use it.

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:

Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2011-01-08 04:00:02 UTC
The duplicate bug indicates that it could be caused by the (order of the) languages you are using. Can you show the contents of the [Locale] section from your .kde/share/config/kdeglobals file?
Comment 2 Jonas Thorell 2011-01-08 04:03:41 UTC
Sure, here it is:

[Locale]
Country=se
CurrencySymbol=SEK 
Language=en
Comment 3 John Layt 2011-01-08 05:17:29 UTC
I'm not near a machine where I can test this, but I suspect it's failing because en is not a valid KDE language, we support en_US or en_GB.  Could you try changing the Language=en to be Language=en_US and see if it works then?
Comment 4 Jonas Thorell 2011-01-08 05:36:31 UTC
That worked, yes! But not en_GB though. Still, that begs the question: if en on its own is an invalid language code, how could it get into that file in the first place? I certainly hasn't edited it by hand.

kcmshell4 () on KDE Platform 4.5.95 (4.6 RC2) using Qt 4.7.1

Same here. Albeit for me, adding _GB to "en" in [Locale] did the trick :) And I sure didn't change that - it was a brandnew install of openSUSE 11.4 Factory..

Comment 6 John Layt 2011-01-08 22:21:52 UTC
OK, so that suggests to me that it is crashing on language codes that are not installed, as opposed to invalid language codes.  I'll need to add some validation steps when using the language code there to ensure that it is installed (hmm, we already validate it later on, I'll just need to move the validation earlier?).

As for how it is getting set to "en", I believe the only place in KDE that sets the Language in the users settings file is the kcm, and the kcm only displays and saves installed language codes, even going to the extent to remove from the Language setting any languages that are no longer installed.  Given both reports are for openSuse, and the second report is for a clean install never having run the kcm before, I wonder if openSuse try write the system language into the users settings file on first run to give them a "sensible" default?  In which case they are writing invalid values, and it's probably unnecessary as KLocale takes the system language into account when determining the language if none is set in KDE.  Guess I'll need to chat to the openSuse guys about that.

Random thought: Perhaps the KCM/KLocale needs to be more forgiving and interpret "en" to mean "en_US".

For me too!
KDE 4.6 Kubuntu 10.10 kernel 2.6.35-25-generic 64-bit

I just start "system-settings" and click on "Locale (Country/Region & Language, Spell Checker)" and "System-settings" crashed everytime!

Thank you

Comment 17 John Layt 2011-02-07 20:21:56 UTC
For all new bug reports, please state the following:
1) Distro and version
2) If this is with a fresh install of the distro (state medium, live CD or install DVD?), or upgrading an old install (state original install version and media if possible)
3) What language you set the system language to in the distro installer
4) the contents of ~/.kde4/share/config/kdeglobals (or just .kde) [Locale] section

To work around the problem:
1) Edit ~/.kde4/share/config/kdeglobals (or just .kde) and remove the Language= line
2) Run the module and set your languages correctly

Basically I can patch to stop the crash in 4.6.1, but I also need info to track down where the rouge language codes are coming from.

Comment 19 Will Stephenson 2011-02-10 22:13:18 UTC
The code in /usr/share/kde4/env/startkde.suse.sh that put the rogue language codes in kdeglobals has been removed for 11.4RC2 and in the KDE:Distro:Factory repo.

Workaround: remove Language and Country fields from kdeglobals

Sorry,

In comment 22 the line:

should be read

I applied this to the suse packages:

 QString KCMLocale::dayPeriodText( const QString &dayPeriod )
 {
-    return dayPeriod.split( QChar::fromLatin1(',') ).at( 2 );
+    QStringList split = dayPeriod.split( QChar::fromLatin1(',') );
+    if (split.size() > 1)
+       return split.at( 2 );
+    else
+       return QString::null;
 }
Comment 28 Christoph Feck 2011-02-27 12:56:02 UTC
Stephan, this patch seems wrong, because at() indexes start with 0.
Comment 29 Stephan Kulow 2011-02-27 13:02:27 UTC
> 2 you mean?
Comment 30 Christoph Feck 2011-02-27 13:09:50 UTC
Yes, at(2) will get the third entry, so the size must be > 2. I don't know the definition of the dayPeriod, but maybe the intention was to get the second entry? Ask John :)

John, can you review the patch at comment #27 including the followup comments? Comment #31 also happens on openSUSE, but I don't know if the reporter already had the patched version.
Comment 39 John Layt 2011-05-14 23:55:50 UTC
No, the patch merely treats a symptom and stops it crashing, the problem comes much earlier when invalid/not installed languages are not being removed from the users existing language list even though there is code supposed to do so.  I'm looking again, good time-filler during Eurovision voting :-)

# cat ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals 

[Locale]
Country=ar
DateFormat=%A %d %B %Y

I checked and found that the locale package was not installed. Probably a typo when i installed a lot of packages and did not notice it ended being not installed. I tested it after installing it and the locale tab did not crash.

systemsettings (1.0) on KDE Platform 4.7.00 (4.7.0) "release 6" using Qt 4.7.3

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

Locale crashes as soon as I try to open it, either from System Settings or the command "kcmshell4 language", as with bug 262488.  

I've tried to work-around this problem by editing the kdeglobals (changing [Locale] Language=en" to en_US and en_GB, but Locale settings still crash when opening.  I'm reporting this bug in case it's a recurrence in KDE 4.7, but it's entirely possible (likely?) that it's an upgrade error on my computer.
