back trace from another crash

Comment 2 David Green 2015-04-07 01:11:44 UTC
Created attachment 1011583 [details]
one more backtrace

Comment 3 David Green 2015-04-07 03:16:16 UTC
The third attached backtrace was collected when I was running in a single monitor (laptop display) configuration so multiple monitors is not the cause of the problem, however crashes were occurring more frequently with multiple monitors enabled.

Comment 4 Daniel Vrátil 2015-04-07 09:10:08 UTC
KDE upstream bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=342763

To be honest this looks like a Qt bug to me, VDMModelDelegateDataType is part of the low-level implementation detail of QML ListView.

Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2015-04-14 16:07:44 UTC
debuginfo-install plasmashell

will help get a better backtrace next time per upstream comment:
"Hmm not much to do unfortunately ... the backtrace is quite non-descript and also doesn't have line numbers... I need a better BT"

Comment 6 David Levner 2016-01-10 17:35:56 UTC
Two plasma-workspace segmentation faults today. Although this is the same behavior as described above, not sure if the root cause is the same. I was playing with panels: I had just created an empty panel, deleted it, created a default panel and deleted it--then the first crash occurred. I have two monitors. My panel creations/deletions were done on the primary monitor. The problem reporting tool told me I have version 5.5.1.1.fc22.x86_64 of plasma-workspace, and that the plasma shell was killed by SIGSEGV. I clicked on the problem reporting tool's REPORT button, but nothing appeared to happen.

Comment 7 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 13:39:23 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is

security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.
