Description Heikki Suonsivu 2011-04-17 14:20:02 UTC 
Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                FreeBSD

Try filing a KDE bug report, which includes a > 64k long stack trace (generated by crash reporting tool), it says too long comments.  This seems rather counter-productive limitation.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Crash konqueror (this happened on www.hs.fi news site, when opening approximately 10 new tabs in the background).  It generated a crash, and crash reported generated a stack trace longer than 64k.


Actual Results:  
Error, too long comments, max 64k

Expected Results:  
Successful filing of a bug report.

64k might have been issue with software running on 8086 cpu.  That was 15-20 years ago.

I think the limitation is built into the bugs.kde.org server for a reason. But DrKonqi could cut off the backtrace, because such a long backtrace is likely caused by a recursion anyway.
