Description Christian C 2018-05-13 23:22:28 CEST

Description of problem:
When using kmail (between 2 crashes !), after a few clicks on email lines in the message list, the window freezes but does not crash. If it is reduced and re-opened, the desktop background is displayed in the window instead of the menu bar and different panes.
When trying to close the kmail window either with the context menu from the left button in the title bar, or with the X button on the right of the title bar, it doesn't close but a "Warning - Window manager" window opens saying that kmail2 does not answer and proposes 2 choices (buttons), "close kmail2" and "wait".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.7.2

How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run kmail
2. select emails, put them into trash and if it doesn't crashes before, it could freeze.
3.

Mageia 6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-09-30. It is no longer 
maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug 
fix updates.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan 
to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to 
a later Mageia version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we 
weren't able to fix it before Mageia 6's end of life. If you are able to 
reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click 
on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent
Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them
obsolete.

If you would like to help fixing bugs in the future, don't hesitate to join the
packager team via our mentoring program [1] or join the teams that fit you 
most [2].

Closing as OLD.
