Version: KDE4.2 Beta2 (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources In the LCD Weather Station widget, when opening the Configure dialog-clicking OK, will crash Kwin shortly after the dialog disappears... also there are no "data sources" listed-and hence no ability to get data for a location, and no weather data to show.
can you reproduce the crash with debugging symbols? http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
Lack of data sources has been fixed by http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=897264
Thx Anne Marie :>) (In reply to comment #1) > can you reproduce the crash with debugging symbols? > http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports > I have yet to be able to get any debugging symbols. The Kdeplasmoids-dbg package will not install; Adept tells me I have broken packages, Synaptic gives me an unresolved dependency error-but lists no packages as broken. Do I need to invoke GDB differently than in the tutorial to follow Plasma? I can generate my crash easy-but GDB does not provide any debugging symbols. Here's the best so far (Note the disclaimer): This backtrace appears to be of no use. This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creation of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in the crash.

This crash only happens if you use the Configure button and has been fixed by a patch in qt-copy: 0260-fix-qgraphicswidget-deletionclearFocus.diff If you compile from sources I suggest you try qt-copy (with patches applied) instead of your distro Qt if you can. Thanks for the report anyway and for the follow-up! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 168278 ***
