Subject: korganizer: recursive todo items cause crash
Package: korganizer
Version: 4:3.3.2-3
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
The problem can be reproduced by the following procedure:
1. Open the Todo List
2. Create two To-do items: "Item A" and "Item B"
3. Make "Item A" a sub-Todo item of "Item B" by drag'n'drop
"Item A" over "Item B"
4. Make "Item A" an independent item by drag'n'drop "Item A"
over the unoccupied space at the end of the list
5. Make "Item B" a sub-Todo item of "Item A" by drag'n'drop
"Item B" over "Item A"
6. Quit and restart korganizer
Speculation:
The underlying data-structures are not updated by the "make independent"
action, but the "make sub-Todo item" actions are. Because of this, the
above procedure causes the two todo items to become dependent on each
other.
KDE Crash Handler:
The backtrace of the KDE Crash Handler suggests a recursive call of the
method KOTodoView::insertTodoItem():
[...]
#35 0x401240fd in KOTodoView::insertTodoItem ()
from /usr/lib/libkorganizer.so.1
#36 0x401240fd in KOTodoView::insertTodoItem ()
from /usr/lib/libkorganizer.so.1
#37 0x401240fd in KOTodoView::insertTodoItem ()
from /usr/lib/libkorganizer.so.1
#38 0x401240fd in KOTodoView::insertTodoItem ()
from /usr/lib/libkorganizer.so.1
#39 0x401240fd in KOTodoView::insertTodoItem ()
from /usr/lib/libkorganizer.so.1
[...]
Workaround:
To work around the problem, I edited the file [1] and removed one of the
"RELATED-TO" lines, which were causing the recursion.
I also noticed, that the problem does not occur, if you make the
sub-Todo item idenpendent via the menu-item "Make Sub-To-Do
Independent". Only loosing the dependency via drag'n'drop seems to cause
the problem.
