Sentry Crash Report:

Description Richard Jones 2010-03-08 16:32:16 UTC
Application that crashed: filelight
Version of the application: 1.9rc3
KDE Version: 4.3.3 (KDE 4.3.3)
Qt Version: 4.5.3
Operating System: Linux 2.6.33-0.40.rc7.git0.fc13.x86_64 x86_64
Distribution: "Fedora release 12 (Constantine)"

What I was doing when the application crashed:
The 'filelight' program just segfaults when I start it.

The only relevant thing may be that I'm using it remotely over X, not a local box, but I've used older versions this way before with no problem.

 -- Backtrace:
Application: Filelight (filelight), signal: Segmentation fault

Did you run `kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental` after you installed it?

I'm re-assigning to kdelibs, since this crash is happening deep in the kpart code.

It would probably also help if you could try to reproduce with the latest version of KDE and Qt, and also install the missing debug symbols (in Qt and kdelibs).

For some reason I'm not getting emailed the replies, so
sorry for the late reply.  Anyway, I ran the above command,
but filelight still crashes.

Upgrading to kdelibs 6:4.4.2-2.fc14
and qt 1:4.7.0-0.6.tp.fc14
(both the latest in Fedora).  It's a massive 300+ MB
download, so I'll let you know how it goes.

Well whadyaknow.  Upgrading the libraries DID fix this.

Changing to RESOLVED.
