Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

It looks like you did not use the DrKonqi crash dialog, because then you would have added the backtrace.

If the crash is reproducible, please add the backtrace. For more information, see http://techbase.kde.org/User:DarioAndres/How_to_provide_more_information_about_crash_reports
Comment 2 John van Spaandonk 2010-10-01 09:42:42 UTC
In all the many crashes I experience with kde4.5 and its applications, the 
backtrace tool claims it does not produce a useful backtrace and it is not
worth filing a bug report.
So perhaps it looks like I need to install more software, not like I did not 
use the crash dialog.

I will see what libraries I need to install. But it would be useful to know if 
you could reproduce the crash. Can you try and report here? If you can 
reproduce it, I guess there is no need for me to install extra stuff.

Comment 3 Christoph Feck 2010-10-01 13:09:58 UTC
You don't need additional libraries, but "debug" packages. If unsure, ask in an Archlinux forum how to install them.

Note that rekonq uses QtWebKit, and most distributions do not ship debug packages for QtWebKit, because of the large size, so don't expect a perfect backtrace.

And I cannot reproduce. That's why a backtrace (even with some missing symbols) would be fine.

I cannot reproduce it, too.

let's see if the arch people can help me.
Comment 6 John van Spaandonk 2010-10-01 18:22:48 UTC
I removed .kde4/share/apps/rekonq directory as well as .kde4/share/config/rekonqrc

This solved the crash

Thanks for the quick reply, I guess it is now safe to close this bug.
I gave it type invalid, hope this is ok.
