Description Ömer Fadıl USTA 2013-07-12 12:43:35 UTC
Application: kactivitymanagerd (3.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.10.95 (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 4.8.4
Operating System: Linux 3.10.0-2-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch)

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

Just change any activity name to null ( empty ) from show activity manager widget
and the  KDE Activity Manager  will crash. I think we need to check whether the input is empty or not before setting it as activity name

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: KDE Activity Manager (kactivitymanagerd), signal: Aborted
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".

KAMD does not really crash - it hits an assert that should exist in a development version to notify the users (in this case plasma) that an empty named activity is a no-no :)

Setting the empty name should be prevented by the UI.
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2018-06-08 19:00:09 UTC
Hello!

This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug is already resolved in Plasma 5.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described  here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!

Nate Graham
