Version: 0.6.1a (using KDE 3.1.0) Installed from: Gentoo Compiler: gcc version 3.2.2 OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-ck4 I'm using Kopete 0.6.1a with the jabber plugin. When I start kopete (from kmenu), open a contact and send a message to that contact kopete crashs. This only happens when I forget to connect. Kopete should e.g. not allow me to send a message when I'm not connected but not crash.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 55385 ***
55385 did not exist in Kopete 0.6.1a. Also, the backtrace is different. The difference in symptom is that in 55385, the crash occurs in libkopete and when the contact is opening, not when a message is being sent.
It both seems to be related to a flaw in the API which allows userId() / myContact() return null values when offline.
