Hi,

hoping this is the right way to contact the Kubuntu QA team besides 
using Launchpad.

There were several QtDeclarative problems in earlier Qt versions, that 
could cause crashes with KDE Plasma and other KDE applications that 
make use of QML features.

As far as I understand, Ubuntu used patches in Qt to address these 
problems. With later updates to Qt, these patches did the reverse: 
they caused crashes, that were fixed upstream, see KDE bug 302931 and 
Launchpad bug 1200523.

According to 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/1200523/comments/172 
these should have been fixed by 
reverting some of the patches.
Unfortunately, https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=302931 is still 
reported for (K)ubuntu 13.10.
There was no answer to 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/1200523/comments/205 so 
I am trying this list.

This is currently the most reported bug we get in the KDE bug tracker, 
see 
https://bugs.kde.org/duplicates.cgi?sortby=delta&reverse=1&maxrows=10&changedsince=60

What can be done to help resolving this issue? Do unpatched Qt 4.8.5 
PPA's exist for directing reporters there for testing?

Thanks,
Christoph Feck
