KDE Platform Version: 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2)

-- Information about the crash:
Kate crashed when deleting text with backspace. The text was at the end of the document and consisted of 4 spaces. (The editor had been configured to insert spaces instead of tabs and to use 4 space widths per tab.) The spaces did not delete upon pressing the backspace key and then kate crashed. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop 32 bit. Kate was installed from the apt-get repositories.

 -- Backtrace:
