Description Rainer Hurtado Navarro 2010-03-28 20:46:29 UTC

Version:           4.3.1 (it is present in KDE 4.3.1) and 4.3.5 (using KDE 4.3.5)
Compiler:          openSuSE 11.2 Build. openSuSE 11.2 Build.
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

It is openSuSE 11.2 x86_64 KDE 4.3.1 and 4.3.5's KStars.
It crashes after showing the splash screen every time is executed, except the first time, when it runs well, although complaining that it finds not a specific path.
As I am working with KDE versión 4.3.5 (KDE 4.3.5) "release 0", currently, I have installed the following packages:
kstars-debuginfo-4.3.5-0.1.4.x86_64
kstars-data-4.3.5-0.1.1.noarch
kstars-4.3.5-0.1.4.x86_64
However, this issue is present since version 4.3.1. I had hoped that upgrading to 4.3.5 would solve this problem, but it is not.
I erased the configuration data of kstars (its settings) stored in my personal home, and it is useful: nor even makes the first run.
The following is the output when executed from konsole:

============= BACKTRACE ENDS =================

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Execute kstars, follow the suggestions dialog.
2.When updating the components of KStars, Kstars will complaint for a path not
found (as I can not make KStars run again after erase it settings files, so the
applications thinks that the next run will be the first one, and I was not
aware that the execution of KStars could be problematic, I did not take note of
that then, because I thought I would have a second chance). Quit the
application.
3.Re-run it and kstars will crash after showing the splash screen every time be run next, even if the user
erased kstars settings.
Actual Results:  
Since KStars 4.3.1, the execution crashes. The 4.3.5 update does not fixes this
issue.

Expected Results:  
KStars run.

Thank you.

Comment 1 Rainer Hurtado Navarro 2010-03-28 21:10:03 UTC

I have noticed the following: I didn't removed the file
~/.kde4/share/config/kstarsrc, but just removed ~/.kde4/share/apps/kstars
folder. So, that is why KStars, obviously, never thought it was a first run.
Also, I searched at https://build.opensuse.org/ for a recent package and I
installed the following version 4.3.5-3.27 from the repository
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/STABLE:/Desktop/openSUSE_11.2/
(I add this repository to YaST to care any dependency needed that would be
provided by the repository itself).
The first run was right, but the subsequent runs crash.
The backtrace follows:

Comment 2 Alexey Khudiakov 2010-04-24 17:38:38 UTC

Thank you for report. This is known bug ant it's already fixed. But it was after 4.3.5 release. It's fixed in all 4.4 branches.

There is workaround for this bug. You could change city name to something shorter. KStars crashed only if city name is too long (17 char if memory serves me right)

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 201756 ***
