Comment 1 Christopher Yeleighton 2010-09-28 18:46:16 UTC
The bug occurs when loading the icon "user-home"; it looks like the expected decompressed size is completely bogus.

Please, it is not a fatal error to be unable to load an icon!

gdb dolphin

run --nofork

Comment 2 Christopher Yeleighton 2010-09-28 18:54:57 UTC
strace shows that the icon cache in /var/tmp/kdecache-krzysztof/kpc/ has been damaged and Dolphin is unable to detect and handle this abnormal condition.

Dirty fix:

cd "/var/tmp/kdecache-$USERNAME"
mv kpc kpc-

and suddenly Dolphin starts normally.

Shame on you!
Comment 3 Christopher Yeleighton 2010-09-28 19:24:33 UTC
This is not a Dolphin bug, this is a kdelibs4 bug.

I would use the following logic:

try { load pixmap } 
catch (...) 
{ 
log; rebuild cache; 
try { load pixmap } catch (...) { log failure; use missing pixmap instead; }}

Comment 5 Christopher Yeleighton 2010-09-28 19:41:02 UTC
I have archived the damaged kpc, in case you are interested in repro.  I cannot attach it because it takes 12 MB compressed.
Comment 6 Peter Penz 2010-11-21 11:28:34 UTC
Thanks for the report, since KDE SC 4.5 a new iconloader code is used in kdelibs which fixes this issue.
