Why does Dr. Konqi think Kate is crashing when closed?

It seems like every time I click on File > Quit in Kate, Dr. Konqi pops up offering to send a crash report. Anyone else experiencing this?

@Nathan:

Which KDE Plasma version?
Please post the output of the CLI command “kinfo” …


On this system executing the newest KDE Gear release (25.12.1), I’m not seeing any Kate crashes – which doesn’t mean I’m not seeing any crashes at all but, the cause of what I’'m experiencing seems to be an issue with Qt version 6.10.1 → relief has been discussed for delivery of a future release of Qt … :upside_down_face:

No. But send the crash report anyways

Hi. Did you try to start Kate from terminal? And after how you think if you push X on window or choose Exit in Kate this is end for Kate. A lot of thinks have to be done and then something happen and crash. Simple.

@Nathan:

AFAICS, nothing strange …
What does the CLI command “coredumpctl” indicate?

  • In particular the “SIG” column – “SIGSEGV” is bad – a Segmentation Fault – “SIGABRT” isn’t as bad – “Abort signal from abort(3)” …

With the CLI command “drkonqi-coredump-gui” you can pick the crash to report – here: <https://bugs.kde.org/>

Of course, the issue stopped immediately when I tried to replicate it, but I recently reported with Dr. Konqi when the issue occurred again today.
