Bug 249988

Application: konqueror (4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2))
KDE Platform Version: 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2)
Qt Version: 4.6.2
Operating System: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

-- Information about the crash:
Title says it all. The crash dialog is all I get to see when I try to launch Konqueror. My distribution is Kubuntu Lucid. The crash has appeared since the installation and thus cannot be related to any special package selections.

The backtrace indicates that the crash originates in the code for the welcome page. However, it did not help to manually set the "UserSettings/HomeURL" key in konquerorrc to specify a home page instead of the welcome page.

I do not need the welcome page, I need Konqueror. It would be very nice if you could provide me with a workaround to disable the codepaths which cause the crash.

The crash can be reproduced every time.

 -- Backtrace:
Application: Konqueror (kdeinit4), signal: Segmentation fault
