Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please answer these questions:

* Is this reproducible?
* If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?

This will help us to find and resolve the problem.

[Daniel Hahler (blueyed)]

No, it's not reproducible for me. I'm using Konversation quite a lot, but it never crashed before.
I've not looked close at the trace, but it appeared to be some Qt (library) issue (cornercase?).

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

I'd conclude that this is a Qt3 cornercase too. Unfortunately Qt Software (Formerly Trolltech) isn't really maintaining Qt3 any more.
