Description of problem: Recent updates to KTextEditor to remove use of deprecated QtScript have caused KTextEditor to become very crash-happy. According to upstream, this is believed to be caused by the auto-indenter code triggering bugs in Qt's QtScript replacement that are not fixed until at least Qt 5.9. I'm filing against Fedora (in addition to upstream) because it's unclear that upstream has any intention of fixing this; upstream's attitude appears to be "don't use older Qt". That being the case, this needs to be dealt with distro-side, possibly by reverting the update to KTextEditor. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kf5-ktexteditor-5.38.0-1.fc26.x86_64 qt5-*-5.7.1-19.fc26.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Refer to upstream bug report Actual results: The KTextEditor-using application (kwrite/kdevelop/etc.) crashes. Expected results: No crash.
<nod>, thanks for filing this. See also https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385413 f26 has qt-5.9.x updates currently in -testing: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-c133443edc that all said, 385413 includes some workaround(s) we can consider (especially for f25 that will most likely not be getting any Qt5 refresh)
and link to a proposed workaround we can consider adding https://phabricator.kde.org/D8544

I duplicated the crash using the test case in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=386112 and confirmed the new version of the package addresses it for me.
