           Summary: Kopete Chat window hangs in infinite loop when total
                    message texts reach certain length
           Product: kopete
           Version: 1.0.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Chat Window
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: cliffhanger at gmx.li


Version:           1.0.0 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

Sometimes urls in the message window can only be wrapped in such a way that a
horizontal scroll bar is necessary. If the total length of the messages
displayed is then long enough to produce also a vertical scroll bar, it can
happen that the vertical bar reduces the line length by an amount which changes
the point where the url is wrapped to the next line. Therefore the horizontal
scroll bar is no longer needed then and the message window gains about one line
in text height. Therefore the vertical scroll bar gets obsolete, which changes 
the way the url is wrapped back to the initial state. This again results in a
horizontal scroll bar and so on...
Finally the Window is stuck in an infinite loop of switching between vertical
and horizontal scroll bar. If you try to close the window KDE tells that it is
no longer responding and asks to kill kopete.

Reproducible: Sometimes
