Description Sandro Mani 2013-02-23 14:52:28 UTC 
Application: kate (3.10.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.10.00
Qt Version: 4.8.4
Operating System: Linux 3.7.5-201.fc18.x86_64 x86_64
Distribution (Platform): Fedora RPMs

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Opened a file

This is the first time I've seen this issue. Besides the fact that kate has been open for a number of days and that many documents were opened / closed in that time frame, I cannot think of anything else worth noting.

The crash does not seem to be reproducible.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Kate (kdeinit4), signal: Segmentation fault

Comment 1 Dominik Haumann 2013-02-24 20:26:13 UTC 
Kate::TextLoader acesses in line 71:
        m_mimeType = KMimeType::findByPath (filename, 0, false)->name ();

So this call finally leads to the crash, since this = 0
KSycocaEntry::name (this=0x0).

I'd say this is a very strange issue and looks like a broken KDE installation. Did you just update?

I'll close this, as I don't think this is a bug in Kate, and probably not even in kdelibs.
If you get this again and if you then can provide further info, please let us know.
Comment 2 Sandro Mani 2013-02-24 23:27:39 UTC 
I've had the system running for ca 2 weeks without reboots, so it might well be an issue related to a component having been updated, though the last series of updates was ca. a day before the crash occurred, and I've opened and closed a number of files between then and the crash. But yeah, this = 0x0 is definitely strange, I'll close the bug and report back if I encounter it again.
Comment 3 jeffrey.h.parker 2013-05-20 16:42:48 UTC 
I've had kate crash repeatedly and it always seems to be when I hit Cntl-O to load a new file.
