First of all, it has become apparent that the title of this bug report is incorrect - it should really be: "KOrganizer crashes on decoding attachment".

I initially thought I has set a reminder for the first time and that the crash was related to that.

It turns out that I did NOT set a reminder, so then I started playing around with the contents of the .ics file.

First I removed all start / end information, still thinking the crash was somehow related to the scheduling of the event/todo. After I removed the start/end information, I tried to open the .ics file by double-clicking and again KOrganizer crashed, but this time the backtrace looked different. It was telling me that it crashed while reading an attachment.

Next I removed the attachment data from the original copy of the .ics file and sure enough, the crash no longer occurred.

The original .ics file can be retrieved from here since it is too large to attach: http://cactuscoder.com/korganizer.crash.ics.tar.gz

Hopefully this will enable you to determine what attachment caused the crash and why... :-)
