Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2010-10-20 12:54:40 UTC
In kfiledialog.cpp fileModule() returns 0 because KService failed to give a result (kbuildsycoca still running?)
Comment 2 David Faure 2010-11-02 22:06:11 UTC
Christoph wrote http://kde.pastebin.ca/1974638 but I was wondering if we should just have that -instead- of the KService-based lookup.

Sebastian, what do you think about the idea of replacing the trader query with a simple KConfig entry for the moduleName to use? How do you handle configuration right now anyway? Using keditfiletype?

I'm not sure what's the best solution. Obviously the trader should be made to work, even if that means waiting longer for kbuildsycoca; but that's unrelated to both the proposed patch and my suggestion; it's something that has to be solved at a much lower level, in fact.

If you can reproduce this crash with KDE 4.9.0 or newer please provide a new backtrace.
Comment 6 Christoph Feck 2013-07-12 01:32:07 UTC
Bug 320771 is from KDE 4.10.3 and shows the same issue. From the description:

"I was also in the process of installing new KDE libraries (upgrade from kde 4.10.2 to 4.10.3) so it could be related to a mismatch of libraries at an inoportune time."

Updating KDE could have caused the sycoca to be rebuild.

Comment 10 Szombathelyi György 2014-06-28 14:38:58 UTC
It always happens to me, when I want to run an app compiled for an older version of kdelibs, and running a self-compiled KDE from the master branch (probably because of the system configuration cache mismatches?)
This backtrace is created when tried to open a file in KolourPaint for 4.12.5 running in an environment 4.13.60:

0x000000332cbec0bf in KFileDialog::KFileDialog (this=0x7fffffffcb60, startDir=..., filter=..., parent=<optimized out>, 
    customWidget=0x0) at /usr/src/debug/kdelibs-4.12.5/kio/kfile/kfiledialog.cpp:266
266         QWidget* fileQWidget = fileModule()->createFileWidget(startDir, this);

Comment 12 David Faure 2015-09-19 23:11:07 UTC
Thanks for the report.

The full redesign around KFileDialog and KFileWidget (+in ksycoca) means this can no longer happen in Plasma 5, closing.
