Description anders.lundkvist 2009-05-12 15:45:19 UTC

Version:           1.4.2 (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When I open a specific mail that I received, Kontact crashes with the following crash report.

The mail as such is most probably an html-message. It is a summary of articles from a newspaper.

---- crash report -----
Application: Kontact (kontact), signal SIGABRT

Comment 1 anders.lundkvist 2009-05-12 15:47:37 UTC

It is not a general problem, I'm able to open mails received, including html ones, but Kontact crashes on this specific mail.

Comment 2 Dario Andres 2009-05-12 16:14:54 UTC

As 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 "kdelibs5-dbg" package.
Also, saving the mail as a file and attaching it here will be useful.
Thanks

Comment 3 Christophe Marin 2009-05-23 15:55:17 UTC

Changing the bug status until we get a backtrace (see comment #2)

Comment 4 Christophe Marin 2009-05-23 15:57:13 UTC

*really doing it now*

Comment 5 Christophe Marin 2009-10-23 10:41:23 UTC

Closing the old crash reports which don't have a useful backtrace. Thanks.
