SUMMARY
"kate" uses file association "other/hunspell thesaurus file" for a file
extension of type "*.dat"; changing this association to "normal" and pressing
"apply" causes a S/W crash
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open a file with extension "*.dat", e.g. "test.dat", with "kate"
2. "kate" associates this file type with "other/hunspell thesaurus file"
3. using "settings > configure kate > open/save > modes & filetypes¨, and
changing "other/hunspell thesaurus file" to "normal", followed by "apply",
causes "kate" to crash
OBSERVED RESULT
crash of "kate" when trying to change a file association
EXPECTED RESULT
application of the newly selected filetype as default for the flle extension
"*.dat"
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
change of file association works as expected when using the "kate" pull-down
menus of the opened file, or by changing the file type displayed at the bottom
right of the window
