           Summary: kate crashes on start (after killing kdeinit4)
           Product: kate
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kwrite-devel@kde.org
        ReportedBy: mpartap@gmx.net


Application: kate (3.6.41)
KDE Platform Version: 4.6.41 (4.7 >= 20110106) (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 4.7.2
Operating System: Linux 2.6.37-zen0-01983-g988ea18 x86_64
Distribution: "Gentoo Base System release 2.0.1-r1"

-- Information about the crash:
Stupid rogue kdeinit4 processes (f.e. if x server crashes, they all go on cpu
frenzy...) ^^
Anyways, *i think* after killing them all (hehe) kate refuses to start, but it
might have started before. Tracing reveiled that in
KateDocManager::KateDocManager constructor, m_editor is (KTextEditor::Editor *)
0x0 because cg.readPathEntry("editor", QString()) in editor constructor returns
NOTHING. Why - mystery. If it goes away after restarting X - well nice, but
still. Resilience of this:
  // Constructed the beloved editor ;)
  m_editor = KTextEditor::EditorChooser::editor();
  m_editor->readConfig(KGlobal::config().data());
is a bit poor ^^

The crash can be reproduced every time.
