So this is not a NeoChat issue at no point does it invoke GDB. This is either a problem with your system or maybe DrKonqui |
Created attachment 180417 [details] gdb taking all the memory SUMMARY Whenever I launch NeoChat, GDB is invoked automatically in the background and consumes all available memory, causing the system to freeze, forcing me to restart. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open NeoChat 2. DrKonqi pops up claiming the application crashed, but Neochat still opens 3. GDB starts silently in the background 4. RAM usage spikes until the system becomes unresponsive 5. Reboot needed OBSERVED RESULT Neochat opens normally and seems to work, but GDB is launched in the background and consumes all system memory. EXPECTED RESULT Neochat should start without triggering GDB, cause a memory leak or crash the system SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0 Qt Version: 6.9.0 Kernel Version: 6.14.2-zen1-1-zen (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz Memory: 15.4 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This behavior happens every time I start Neochat. I'm not launching it with a debugger, it happens automatically. It may be related to how drkonqi handles crash reports
