Description Steven Sroka 2012-05-13 22:41:09 UTC 
Application: systemsettings (1.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.8.3 (4.8.3)
Qt Version: 4.8.1
Operating System: Linux 3.2-CHAKRA x86_64
Distribution: "Chakra Linux"

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:

Under the Appearance tab, I clicked the Create button. I ran kcm_grub2 through Valgrind and got this displayed in the terminal:


Qt has caught an exception thrown from an event handler. Throwing
exceptions from an event handler is not supported in Qt. You must
reimplement QApplication::notify() and catch all exceptions there.

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Magick::ErrorModule'
  what():  Magick: unable to load module `/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.6.6/modules-Q16/coders/svg.la': file not found @ error/module.c/OpenModule/1276

The crash can be reproduced every time.

Please install all the Optional Deps of imagemagick as shown by 'pacman -Qi imagemagick'. I have reported this bug to Arch's developers but they won't fix it. You are supposed to look through the package information.
Comment 3 Steven Sroka 2012-05-16 03:41:21 UTC 
That did it. It was either librsvg or libwmf or gsfonts (which was pulled in as a dependency).

BTW, I should tell the Chakra Developers about this so they can fix it at their end. Can you link me to your Arch Linux bug report or your email to the Arch Linux mailing list if there is one?

Ah I love Chakra. Issue fixed in Chakra's repos already ;)

Please note that unless this is a packaging issue (Arch/Chakra), this issue should be reported upstream (imagemagick) for fixing. Unfortunately I can't reproduce it on Gentoo (compiled imagemagick 6.7.6.4 without svg/wmf support). Could you possibly poke the Chakra devs and straighten this out?

The offending piece of code merely queries ImageMagick for the supported codecs, it doesn't in any way require svg/wmf thus it shouldn't crash.
