Description François-Denis Gonthier 2004-10-05 00:27:24 UTC 
Version:           3.1.0-3 (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          3.3.4 
OS:                Linux

kdevassistant crashes on my systems.  Debian package version 3.1.0-3 and 3.1.0-1.  It also crashes when using the package source files.

Console trace:

neumann@Silvester:~$ kdevassistant
QPainter::begin: Cannot paint null pixmap
QPainter::setPen: Will be reset by begin()
KCrash: Application 'kdevassistant' crashing...

Comment 1 François-Denis Gonthier 2004-10-05 02:50:21 UTC 
The source of the problem is the "3" in the directory name: "/usr/share/apps/kdevelop3".

kdevassistant is crashing at line:
pm.load(locate("data", "kdevelop/pics/kdevassistant-splash.png"));

Since this problem is not related to Kdevelop but to the way it is packaged, I will contact Debian package manager for resolution.

Sorry for inconvenience.

kdevassistant patch

I think that this patch can solve the problem in Debian and in any other
package that change the default path of kdevelop data
Comment 3 Jens Dagerbo 2005-01-10 17:55:14 UTC 
No, that patch assumes the KDevAssistant splash is installed in the kdevassistant appdir, which it isn't.

It probably should be though...
Comment 4 Malix 2005-01-10 19:05:20 UTC 
So why not move the kdevassistant splash in appdir, as is in main.cpp for kdevelop splash?
Comment 5 Ralf Seliger 2005-05-12 12:03:42 UTC 
Just copy /usr/share/apps/kdevelop3/pics to /usr/share/apps/kdevelop/pics
It's not nice, but it works.
