Konqueror crashes on searches in history file

[Takayama]

This is a Dapper-related bug.

Since today, there seems to be a memory leak in konqueror. After entering the first character in the address bar, t freezes for about 3 seconds, then dies.

when started at cli, it tells me:
-------------------
*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0x4033d278 ***
Alarm clock
-------------------

I was able to circumvent the problem by deleting ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/*history* , however, it reappeared about 20 minutes later.

I cannot reproduce this problem.

Can you please run Konqueror from gdb, and post a backtrace ?

-gdb /usr/bin/konqueror
-type r
-reproduce steps involving crash
-type bt

Post the output here :)

After fresh install with flight-3 ,this took place in my system .
LANG=en_US
LC_CTYPE=ZH_CN-UTF-8

Exactly this behavior occurs since about two weeks now. It takes about ten lookups in the history bar, then Konqueror (and all of X) freeze. Usually I can kill Konqueror from Terminal 1 (Ctrl+Alt+F1).
Konqueror won't start in the same KDE session anymore.

do you still have this problem with latest updates?

Thankfully, no (with 3.5.2)
