Description José Matos 2019-05-11 18:48:09 UTC
Description of problem:
Updating to version 63.2-1.fc30 cause a crash in kontact (and other qt5-qtwebengine based applications).

The crash is due to the code triggering an assert:

Comment 1 Kevin Kofler 2019-05-12 12:51:43 UTC
Looks like this also makes Falkon unusable in Rawhide, I get this on the latest Rawhide KDE Live image:
malloc(): invalid size (unsorted)
and it crashes.

I am nominating this bug as a blocker for Fedora 31 on the ground that it breaks at least one (in fact, at least 2: Falkon and Kontact) default applications on the KDE Spin, as per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_30_Final_Release_Criteria#Default_application_functionality (lacking official criteria for Fedora 31 at this time).

It is arguable whether Falkon should actually be considered the default browser on the KDE Spin, which would make this a blocker even for the Rawhide composes as per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Basic_Release_Criteria#Required_applications .

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2019-05-12 14:02:33 UTC
Interestingly, icu-63.2-1 on f29 does not appear to suffer from similar problems.  After updating to libicu-63.2-1.fc29, qtwebengine applications continue to start and run fine.

Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2019-05-12 14:13:54 UTC
My comment was erroneous, f29 updates-testing has 62.2, not 63.2, so that's probably relevant why/how f29 is unaffected

Comment 4 Eike Rathke 2019-05-13 09:50:30 UTC
Same happened for the update on F30 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-c497e61c26

I'll roll back to 63.1 on rawhide.

Comment 5 Eike Rathke 2019-05-13 12:26:24 UTC
Changing Version field from f30 to rawhide because that's the important thing, the update is not included in F30 as bodhi holds it back.

Comment 6 Eike Rathke 2019-05-13 15:22:03 UTC
icu-63.2-2.fc31 should fix this, if someone could verify?

Comment 7 Fedora Update System 2019-05-13 16:07:50 UTC
icu-63.2-2.fc30 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 30. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-29e13b1d55

Comment 8 Colin J Thomson 2019-05-13 18:00:16 UTC
icu-63.2-2.fc30  fixes the crashes on this F30 box, with applications that use qt5-qtwebengine.
IE Kmail, Falkon, Akregator etc

Comment 9 Fedora Update System 2019-05-14 01:54:01 UTC
icu-63.2-2.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
