[Kstars-devel] crash condition, possibly due to KIO bug

[Jason Harris]

Hello,

Just a heads up: I have uncovered a crash condition in KStars.  If you
invoke the Image Viewer using an object's right-click menu, and the
image cannot be downloaded (due to an incorrect URL or unresponsive
server), then KStars will crash.

After some investigation, I believe the bug is in KIO, not KStars.  I
have filed a bug report here:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163023

If anyone has ideas of how we can avoid exposing this crash, let me know!

thanks,
Jason
