unregisterJob cannot be called more than ones or it trys to disconect self more than ones. So Qt must be smart enough, but it shouldn't. Fix is pretty easy, check must be *bofore* parent call and job must be removed from list.
 if (!d->progressJobView.contains(job))
 ...
 KJobTrackerInterface::unregisterJob(job);
