Thanks, I'll try this tomorrow.

No problem, really :-)

Maybe, the KDE crash handler should not provide backtraces without the 
relevant -dbg libraries. If it wouldn't provide useless backtraces you 
wouldn't have to bother about them. 
 
BTW, I actually thought kdvi would crash with *every* .dvi opened since it 
does so with every .dvi I produce. Your reply caused me to investigate 
further. So it's all for good!

I've already send a bug report to upstream as #129099. Please, let me know if 
you would prefer me sending further information to the Debian-,  KDE- or both 
bug tracking systems.

Kind regards,
