Bug#301966: kmail: crash when changing spell check language (probably race condition)
Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.3.1-3
Severity: normal
I had a crash, and I could repeat it several times, but it did
not crash every time, so I can't give exact steps how to reproduce it.
What I did is the following:
- replied to a mail
- chose extras -> spell checking
- changed the language while spell checking
I got a message box telling me that the change won't have
an effect until the dialog box is restarted, and, on the
same time, I sometimes got the dialog box spell checking
with the new chosen language.
- I pressed cancel on the spell checking box
- and ok (the only choice anyway) on the message box
Then kmail crashed.
The text in the mail probably has to have some words which
are wrong in the first and some words which are wrong in the
second language.
