Comment 1 Dario Andres 2009-03-11 23:35:33 UTC

This can be fixed in 4.2.x
If you can reproduce the crash at will, may you read http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports and post a complete backtrace here? 
You need to install the "kdepim-dbg" and "kdelibs5-dbg" packages
Thanks :)
