Created attachment 178813 [details] Bcaktrace, not sure if it is of use. SUMMARY After a few hours of use Kontact will crash on exit, and Drkonqi does not initialise STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use kontact 2. Exit Kontact 3. Crash/coredump OBSERVED RESULT When closing Kontact it will crash (coredump) It happens every time once it has been running for a few hours. EXPECTED RESULT No crash SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Fedora Linux 41 KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0 Qt Version: 6.9.0 Kernel Version: 6.13.4-200.fc41.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have attempted to provide a BT, but not sure if it is of use.
FWIW, I had a random crash whilst using Kontact and a good full back trace was sent to sentry via Drkonqi. Related or not I have no idea, sorry.
Created attachment 178851 [details] New BT when closing Kontact
I am closing this now, I think the issue was that I was testing with QT-6.9, since downgrading to QT-6.8.2 all works OK, no coredumps when closing kontact for two days.
I have reopened this as QT6.9 is default now in Fedora42. I still use git master for apps, plasma, frameworks provided by a COPR. The crashes when I close kontact have resumed, every time and DrKonqi does not start. A new crash has been uploaded to sentry this evening, this occurred when browsing posts in Akregator, which froze and crashed kontact. qt6-qtwebengine seems to be the common denominator here?
crash with coredump of kontact also in openSUSE Tumbleweed 20250912 KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.17.0 Qt Version: 6.9.2 Kernel Version: 6.16.6-1-default (64-bit)
