--- Comment #18 from Wolfgang Bauer <wbauer at tmo.at> ---
Sorry, it wasn't my intention to have this auto-closed... :-/

I still cannot reproduce it though.

Regarding comment#13: the crash happens when kget creates the entries to hide
columns in the list header's right-click context menu.
So transfers.kgt shouldn't be relevant here.
It might be somehow related to ~/.config/kgetrc (or
~/.kde(4)/share/config/kgetrc) though, so it might be worth a try to
delete/rename that one.

Judging from the backtrace, this crash must have been introduced by
https://cgit.kde.org/kget.git/commit/?h=KDE/4.12&id=c6531c0334a7cab9d37cc921fb5792b4727b0611
(and it seems to fit that this originally has been reported against 4.12.2,
which is the first version that includes that change).
Calling populateHeaderActions() more than once (which happens since that
change) is not really great, as it allocates the actions on the heap and never
frees them... (but that shouldn't cause a crash)
But just reverting that is probably not a good idea either, as it was a fix for
another crash (bug#329957).

I'll have to think more about it, not being able to reproduce makes it hard to
investigate what really goes wrong though...
