Comment 1 Hussam Al-Tayeb 2011-10-26 08:13:00 UTC
This crash started happening after rebuilding, kdelibs, kde-workspace, kde-runtime, etc.. under QT 4.8.0rc1.
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2011-10-26 14:55:04 UTC
I am seeing multiple applications crashing on exit in qDeleteAll (Kontact, Plasma, Okular) with Qt 4.8, so I am pretty sure it is a Qt issue.

Any upsteam Qt bug report about this? where do I file one?
Comment 5 Hussam Al-Tayeb 2011-10-26 17:00:55 UTC
I meant to type upstream* ...sorry for the spam.
Comment 6 Christoph Feck 2011-10-26 21:30:41 UTC
The address to report Qt bugs would be https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa

Be prepared to have a minimal test case that reproduces the crash at hand :/

Qt (upstream) bug,
https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-22037
Comment 9 Hussam Al-Tayeb 2011-10-29 12:16:26 UTC
looks like it is not a Qt bug.

says "this change is known to reveal bugs in the usage of qlist; several places in qt itself had to be fixed as well."
Comment 10 Christoph Feck 2011-10-29 12:34:16 UTC
Yep, I already found the place to fix for Kontact, now lets find the other culprits (I probably should add KWin to comment #2 ...)

Hotfix

This fixes the crash for me, but it is only a workaround. Somewhere, the applet list gets modified while the applets are deleted.

Cristoph, i can confirm your patch works for me also. 4.7.3 built against qt 4.8

could you post a proper patch on:

here those patches usually get lost

Comment 16 Kevin Kofler 2011-12-13 21:58:37 UTC
These "fixes" which replace qDeleteAll by a manual loop are most definitely only workarounds.

There are 3 possibilities:
(a) Qt is broken. But ossi says the code is not broken, and not having found any fault after proofreading it at least 3 times, I tend to believe him unless proven otherwise. If Qt is broken, this needs to get fixed in Qt.
(b) Qt is getting miscompiled by g++. So far, no evidence of this, but it is a possibility that shouldn't be ignored, and it tends to be hard to figure out that kind of stuff. If that's the case, this needs to get fixed in g++.
(c) The list is somehow already in an invalid state when qDeleteAll is called. If that's the case, the code which puts it into that invalid state needs to get fixed.

Either way, the "fix" is not the real fix, and closing the bug is deceptive and misleading.
