Subject:    Bug#35582: Crashes when I try to load a config file

Package: kcmlinuz
Version: 2.2.2

If this problem is general, severity should be higher.

I click on the KDE control center icon and select System | Linux
Kernel Configurator.
Then I click "Load From" and navigate to a copy of the configuration
file save under /boot by kernel-package (? not sure that's the exact
name--the debian way of building kernels).  I select the file, hit OK,
and it crashes.

I thought it might be a permission issue, so I copied config-2.4.12 to
my home directory and changed ownership.  Still crashes repeatably.

I thought it might be that the default path to the source is not
present on my system, but setting it first and then loading the config
file still crashes.

After I set the path I get the following error displayed in the main
panel of the KDE Control Center:
        The kernel configuration could not be read due to the following error:

        cannot open /usr/local/src/kernel-source-2.4.14//arch//config.in for
        readingEither your kernel sources contain invalid configuration rules
        or you just found a bug in the KDE Kernel Configurator.


Here's the trace from the panel that told me the KDE Control Center
had crashed:
