[Digikam-users] Digikam ver. 2.6.0 crashing

[Gilles Caulier]

>From the trace :

#8  0x02100fb0 in QObject::connect (sender=0x3a002f, signal=0xa630d8ab
"2gotThumbnail(KUrl,QPixmap)", receiver=0xbfe0634c, method=0xa630d88e

It crash when the connection is done with Qt signal/slot :

https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/kipi-plugins/repository/revisions/master/entry/picasawebexport/picasawebreplacedialog.cpp#L182

... crash appear indeep into Qt... Why ? There is no reason. d->iface
is not null, current instance is not null... So it look like a broken
BC with Qt...

... or your backtrace is corrupted or uncomplete... Sound like you
have get it from KDE crash handler, not GDB from a console. I
recommend this last way to get a real suitable GDB backtrace...
