Description ponchorat1968 2016-01-30 12:38:33 UTC

After doing a search on "." on an external 8Tb hard drive (only used 2Tb) with only films on, I have been going back-and-forth switching search results from name to type and back, since late last night (about a 13 - 15 hour gap). I only came back to the search results just after midday, and after just selecting sort by type and highlighting "AVI" and then selecting t sort by name, Dolphin just faded out and crashed, without telling me it had crashed. I had to manually report this crash, so the report might not contain anything useful, sorry.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On a large external HD (with alphabetised folders) search for everything, "."
2. switch the results from name to type a couple of times, add with that a few moves to another drive and deletes
3. Leave for about 15 hours
4. switch the results from name to type
5. Highlight one type of video
6. switch from type to name


Actual Results:  
After performing step 6, Dolphin just faded out, not even telling me it had crashed.

Expected Results:  
It should have just switched to display the search results alphabetically with the highlighted results scattered throughout the search results.

While the search was ongoing and dormant, I had Curlew converting AVI to MKV throughout the night, saving the converted file in the same folder as the file to convert.

I have tried to recover what I think was the crash report but I don't know if I was successful.

I <may> have managed to send the crash results of the '.crash' file by selecting open with 'report a crash'.

Thanks for the bug report. There is indeed not much useful information in the backtrace.

To be honest, I'm not sure if reporting bugs for extremely outdated software makes much sense at all, or if it is a waste of your time. Lots of things have been changed since Dolphin 4.14. Most notably, it has been ported to Qt5 and KF5. Many old bugs might not exist at all any more. Moreover, I don't think it's likely that your distribution will provide updated packages for Dolphin and kdelibs 4.14 (unless they fix security issues or something similarly urgent).

KDE 4 software is no longer maintained. Try KDE5 stuff, it's awesome. Dolphin is amazing now.
