           Summary: crash when indirect file points to existing file with
                    zero size
           Product: kst
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: RedHat RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kst kde org
        ReportedBy: matt truch net


Version:           0.99-devel (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:                Linux

kst will crash (sig 11) when you try to select an indirect data file when the indirect data file points to an existing file with zero size.  

how to reproduce:  create an empty file (touch a.txt); create an indirect file pointing to a.txt (echo "a.txt" > a.cur); point kst to this a.cur file.  

expected behavior: kst doesn't crash, and doesn't let you use the file for data (which it does do correctly if you point it directly to the zero length file).
