Application: kate (3.14.2)
KDE Platform Version: 4.14.2
Qt Version: 4.8.6
Operating System: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64
Distribution: Debian GNU/Linux 8.5 (jessie)

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Trying to open README file from tarballs. Kate crashes. File opens in non-kde dependant progrms, like libreoffice for instance.

- Unusual behavior I noticed:
Dolphin also crashes when right click-> properties on the file

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
