Created attachment 1091 [details] backtrace from crash of kappfinder
Hi Michael, concerning the backtrace, it doesn't look like a bug in the program, but a bug in some libs (maybe qt). Could you use strace to check what files are accessed before the segfault appears? Ciao, Tobias
Happens to me on Debian woody too. here's the backtrace from the crash handler: (no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...

The first time around, kappfinder worked. The second time, and I'm not aware of having done anything different, it starts crashing on scan.
Subject: Re: Kappfinder starts correctly. when scan is started the program crashes. Tobias, since the new releae this bug has been resolved. I tried to enter that info in the bug tool but it says I don't have permission. sorry. --- Tobias K
Hi Michael, so I'll close the bug report now, thank you for your help. Ciao, Tobias
