Application: kontact (4.8.2) KDE Platform Version: 4.8.2 (4.8.2) Qt Version: 4.8.1 Operating System: Linux 3.2.0-23-generic-pae i686 Distribution: Ubuntu precise (development branch) -- Information about the crash: - What I was doing when the application crashed: Crash was immediately on startup before I even saw the U/I start to draw. Akonadi was in a stopped state when Kontact was launched. The backtrace seems similar, but not identical to the backtrace in the suggested dupe. I'm not enough of an expert at reading backtraces to know if it's a dupe or not. -- Backtrace: Application: Kontact (kontact), signal: Segmentation fault Using host libthread_db library "/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".

Is the crash reproducible if you stop akonadi then start kontact ? if yes, did you configure kontact to start on a particular module ?
It has happened a few times. It was not reliably reproducable, but IIRC it did happen with akonadi stopped. At the time, Kontact was starting in Kmail.

This bug has never been confirmed for a Kontact version that is based on KDE Frameworks, except possibly a Technology Preview version 5.0.x. Those versions differ significantly from the old 4.x series. Therefore, I plan to close it in around two or three months. In the meantime, it is set to WAITINGFORINFO to give reporters the opportunity to check if it is still valid. As soon as someone confirms it for a recent version (at least 5.1, ideally even more recent), I'll gladly reopen it. Please understand that we lack the manpower to triage bugs reported for versions almost two years beyond their end of life.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.1 aka 15.12; preferably much more recent), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
