           Summary: Critical: kst freezes when loading some files
           Product: kst
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kst kde org
        ReportedBy: nicolas.brisset eurocopter com


Version:           1.3.0_devel (using KDE 3.4.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3
OS:                SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

We have problems with kst from HEAD (I don't know since when this is the case), but some files won't load. I unfortunately can't send you the actual file it happens with (I could send the .kst, but the data file is more problematic) but at some point during the initial document loading, kst UI freezes while the only output I get in the console is "update thread paused".

Below is a backtrace I got from the debugger. I hope that's enough to locate the problem, as it is really blocking: we can't work on saved files (it happens indifferently with files saved recently or long ago). 
FYI, we have the same problem with two different datasources, while both datafiles are read correctly from the datawizard. The common point between both cases is that we use equations, though, and looking at the backtrace it seems to be linked. I suspect there's something wrong with equations, but I don't have time right now to dig more...

Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
