Hello John, Unfortunately I am not able to reproduce this behaviour. Please install the package kdesdk-dbg and obtain a new backtrace of this crash, I suspect the one you posted initially is so short because some debugging related files are missing (I might be wrong though :)). If kdesdk-dbg doesn't help to get a longer backtrace, an strace might be of use. Please run strace kompare > ~/kompare.strace 2&>1 this will create a file called kompare.strace in your home directory, please attach this file to this bug report. Thank you very much in advance and have a nice day.
