Bug 276383

Application: kopete (1.0.80)
KDE Platform Version: 4.6.80 (4.7 Beta1)
Qt Version: 4.7.2
Operating System: Linux 2.6.39-gentoo-r1 i686
Distribution (Platform): Gentoo Packages

-- Information about the crash:
Kopete crashes occured during group conversations.
I tried to debug it and found that in HistoryGuiClient constructor (historyguiclient.cpp):

HistoryGUIClient::HistoryGUIClient ( Kopete::ChatSession *parent )
		: QObject ( parent ), KXMLGUIClient ( parent )
{
...
Here you check if QList is empty
if ( !m_manager || m_manager->members().isEmpty() )
	deleteLater();
But even if (m_manager->members().isEmpty() == true), method deleteLater() doesn't break run progress, so under certain circumstances you can reference to the first element of the empty list and segfault will occur: 

QList<Kopete::Contact*> mb=m_manager->members();
m_logger=new HistoryLogger ( mb.first() , this ); <--- Here comes segfault!
 
For some reason it happens very often on my computer and kopete becomes unusable - it crashes every 5 minutes due to this error.

The crash can be reproduced some of the time.
