Description Marco Leise 2018-07-20 14:47:01 UTC

Application: kate (17.12.3)
 (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 5.9.6
Frameworks Version: 5.46.0
Operating System: Linux 4.14.52-gentoo x86_64
Distribution (Platform): Gentoo Packages

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

I was trying to open my drop-down terminal with the key left to the '1' (°/^ in "de" layout) while opening a project of ~103 documents. Before the main application window became visible, Kate popped up a dialog about a nonexistent document. In particular only the title bar was rendered, the message box content or "client area" as it may be called in some toolkits was not drawn showing the desktop behind it. I was able to reproduce it twice in a row.

The next thing I noticed was that the terminal (Tilda) does not open at all - in fact there was no 'tilda' process. I can't say for sure if it crashed long before I launched Kate or with Kate. Tilda is a Gtk3 project registering a global hotkey which is a mechanism that is shared by all desktop processed. That's what makes me think this mechanism might fail if something isn't fully initialized or an application crashed that registers a hotkey.

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

Comment 1 Marco Leise 2018-07-20 15:27:30 UTC

It appears that any 'dead key' when pushed at the right time of loading makes Kate fail to launch. I tried with ^ and ', which on their own don't produce output, but wait for a second key to form â or é. I was hammering these keys right after the project selection screen at the speed of a humming bird and Kate closed immediately before showing the main window or any dialog. More specifically /sometimes/ DrKonqi recognizes it as a crash, other times Kate just vanishes. The same behavior is not observed when pushing regular alpha-numerical keys hinting at some problem with input composition.

Again, the 'dead key' presses after the project selection screen are relevant. When hitting such a key in quick succession, Kate will crash on very close to 50% of launches for me.

Hmm, I tried hard, but can not reproduce this.

You might be correct that this is some side-effect of global hotkey registering, ...

But in any case, I don't see, how I can fix that in our application.
