kcharselect crash report

Description Robert Ottlovich 2011-10-25 10:03:43 CEST
Description of problem:
KCharSelect crashes with this message. Problem occures sometimes. Now I use GNOME 2.32.1.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kcharselect --version
Qt: 4.7.3
KDE Development Platform: 4.6.5 (4.6.5)
KCharSelect: v1.8

How reproducible:
I just to select Cyrillic (or other exotic) range when KCharSelect crashes.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select font.
2. Select Latin script.
3. Select range.

I nowadays refresh from KDE 4.6.5 to KDE 4.6.5. KCharSelect has been updated, too.

Comment 2 Robert Ottlovich 2011-10-25 10:18:44 CEST
Steps to reproduce:
1. Select font. Right.
2. Select European languages. Left.
3. Select Base Latin. Middle. No problem.
4. Select Cyrillic. Crash.

I think problem comes out when problematic range has not contain any glyphs or corrupted (in a certain way). I think KCharSelect should not crash in this way.

You're not up to date, could you test with the last qt4 version ?
Because from the crash log you're using qt4.7.3 when we're having qt 4.7.4 (which fix several bugs) in mageia/updates.

kcharselect crash report

I'm getting a similar segfault on my up-to-date i586 Mageia 1 install,
when I select African scripts with the left drop down button, but only
if I'm switching from European Alphabets to African Scripts. If I
switch to Middle Eastern scripts, and then to African scripts, it works.
