Description Soukyuu 2015-06-06 13:51:02 UTC
So far it happened when I was reading the backlog. I scrolled up to the top, and started reading, scrolling from time to time. Then suddenly scrolling stopped working and clicking anywhere didn't do anything either.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start konversation and connect to the server
2. let a backlog build up/receive a backlog from a bouncer
3. scroll up and start reading the backlog

Actual Results:  
konversation freezes after some time

Expected Results:  
konversation should not freeze

About the only thing related to konversation in journalctl is this:
-----------
No language dictionaries for the language: "en"
-----------
This gets spammed a few times. I'm running plasma 5.3.1 and kf5.1.0
Never happened before 1.6/the kf5 switch. Scrollback is set to 1000 lines, but most backlog I receive from the bouncer is max 500 lines.

I think I figured it out. When you have konversation configured to open links to files in the program they're associated with, the kioexec process doesn't seem to return with some programs. In my case it's photoqt. So Konversation sits there and waits for kioexec to exit, but for some reason it does not after photoqt is closed.

The weird thing is, that if I configure Gwenview to open the images by default, things work, but I then get random popups as shown in attachment long after I've opened any image files.

Scratch the part about gwenview working - it just froze on me after I opened a link with it. Had to manually kill the kioexec process.

I just had the same type of freeze with another application, so it seems it's not a bug in konversation, but kioexec instead...
