Package: kdelibs4 Version: 4:3.2.2-1 Severity: normal I'm experiencing KNotify crashes, and I have since upgrading to 3.2.1. They occur on login and logout.
On login, there's a box popping up saying: "During the previous startup, KNotify crashed while instantiating KNotify. Do you want to try again or disable aRts sound output?" I go "try again", and apparently, aRts works well, at least artsd is running, and I have full sound. There is another box, of the typical KNotify KDE crash handling boxes jumping up, saying KNotify crashed with a SIGSEGV or something like that. I go to look at the backtrace, and it starts with "This backtrace appears to be useless. This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creating of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in the crash." Nevertheless, there are some things there, so I'll post it, anyway. There were a lot of "(no debugging symbols found)..." that I've mostly deleted. Anyway, here it goes: (no debugging symbols found)...Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

Again, KNotify has crashed, but as I'm logging out, it disappears before I get to make anything out of it. I suppose it is related, but I'm speculating. That's about all I've got. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.25-backstreet-ruby.2004-03-25.1-owl Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages kdelibs4 depends on: ii kdelibs-bin 4:3.2.2-1 KDE core binaries ii kdelibs-data 4:3.2.1-1 KDE core shared data ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.16-3 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libarts1 1.2.2-1 aRts Sound system ii libasound2 1.0.4-1 Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ii libaudio2 1.6c-3 The Network Audio System (NAS).
