Patch from upstream bug

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2012-02-11 17:01:34 UTC
The upstream bug implies theres some kdelibs/plasma fixes required too, we'll probably just wait for kde-4.8 to land.

Updated patch which applies against 4.7.4

I did have to modify the patch to get it to apply against 4.7.4.  (Modified version attached.)  I have rebuilt with this patch applied, and I will run with this a while to see if the crash occurs.

Comment 5 Ian Pilcher 2012-02-14 14:37:37 UTC
No crashes or apparent issues since I rebuilt kdebase-workspace-4.7.4-7.fc16 with the backported patch.  Unless 4.8.1 is imminent, or there's some other objection, can we get this fixed?  (The patch has been upstream for more than 2 months.)
