Application: kfilemetadatareader () KDE Platform Version: 4.7.00 (4.7.0) Qt Version: 4.7.3 Operating System: Linux 3.0-ARCH x86_64 Distribution: "Arch Linux" -- Information about the crash: - What I was doing when the application crashed: Hovering with the mouse abouve several files. The backtrace is from a crash while hovering above doc, pdf and ppt files. strigi also crashes very frequently when hovering above video files. I deactivated Nepomuk & Strigi in the Systemsettings, unfortunately it did quiet the frequent crash-pop-ups. The crash can be reproduced some of the time. -- Backtrace: Application: (kfilemetadatareader), signal: Segmentation fault [KCrash Handler] #6 readLittleEndianInt32 (c=0x7fbcb27fd410 <Address 0x7fbcb27fd410 out of bounds>) at /home/build/build/x86_64/kdesupport/src/kdesupport/strigi/libstreams/include/strigi/textutils.h:78 #7 Strigi::OleInputStream::Private::Private (this=0x8da150, s=<optimized out>, input=<optimized out>) at /home/build/build/x86_64/kdesupport/src/kdesupport/strigi/libstreams/lib/oleinputstream.cpp:208 #8 0x00007fbcc3b525c2 in Strigi::OleInputStream::OleInputStream (this=0x7fff269d2000, input=<optimized out>) at /home/build/build/x86_64/kdesupport/src/kdesupport/strigi/libstreams/lib/oleinputstream.cpp:151 #9 0x00007fbcc8ae5f9d in OleEndAnalyzer::analyze (this=0x8a8160, ar=..., in=<optimized out>) at /home/build/build/x86_64/kdesupport/src/kdesupport/strigi/libstreamanalyzer/lib/endanalyzers/oleendanalyzer.cpp:377 #10 0x00007fbcc8acc44a in Strigi::StreamAnalyzerPrivate::analyze (this=0x76aa10, idx=..., input=0x8a2a60) at /home/build/build/x86_64/kdesupport/src/kdesupport/strigi/libstreamanalyzer/lib/streamanalyzer.cpp:420 #11 0x00007fbccb4c59bf in ??

> Hovering with the mouse abouve several files In which application? For Dolphin, those crashes should not show the crash dialog in KDE 4.7
Hi Christoph. Yes, the application is dolphin. from the crash report the line with: /home/build/build/x86_64/.. just caught my eye. If the application is looking for files in this directory, it might be a packaging problem.

Somewhen with 4.7.1 or 4.7.2 the crash (-reports) have gone. -> When hovering files, no crash is being reported, but that may be related to strigi not running. "Well", you might say, "start strigi and test it already!". "Dear friend", i would then answer, "it _is_ activated in the system settings dialogue, nepomuk is being reported as running, strigi isnt, although the box is checked to run it. Unchecking, applying, checking and applying again does not start strigi." In order to continue the fabulous imaginary story (and to test against 4.7.2.) i would need further instructions.

with 4.7.4 the problem is fixed for the original reporter. Please try to update to a more recent version of KDE and reopen the bug if it is still present for you.
