Description of problem: Kppp segfaults when the number to dial begins with a '*' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdenetwork-4.2.0-2.fc10.i386 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start kppp (F > Applications > Internet > Internet Dialup Tool). 2. Click Configure > Accounts > New > Manual Setup. 3. In the Dial tab, select Add (phone number). 4. Enter the phone number as '*' (minus the quotes). Actual results: kppp crashes with SIGSEGV. Expected results: A phone number with '*' should be allowed. My wireless USB modem (http://www.airtel.in/wps/wcm/connect/airtel.in/Airtel.In/Home/ForYou/Wireless+Internet/USB+Modem/) requires me to dial *99# to connect to the service provider. Additional info:
It actually crashes whatever character you write in the text box
Upstream bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176645 New kdenetwork package + patch has been built for rawhide. It should be available for F-9 and F-10 users within the next updates push (hopefully)
it's fixed in 4.2.1
