Package: kword
Version: 1.1-final (using KDE 2.2.1 )
Severity: normal
Installed from:    Debian Packages
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Reported by a debian user; the full dialogue is at:
http://bugs.debian.org/113872

Package: kword
Version: 1:1.1.0-final-5
Severity: normal

Search and replace TEXT with Text (no use patterns, no placeholders), case sensitive \
search, whole words only, not from cursor, not find backwards, no prompt on replace.  \
Assuming document contains TEXT infinite loop will start which can only be broken by \
killing application.

Terminal window repeats:

        QGArray::at: Absolute index 26472 out of range

(with number continuously increasing).

This search and replace doesn't even seem like it could cause an infinite loop--it's \
a case sensitive search, so once TEXT is replaced with Text it should not be found \
again.  But KWord keeps inserting TextTextText, etc..

[snip]

Another detail I neglected to mention: this bug only seems to occur when the 'Whole \
Words Only' selection is checked.
