Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.3.2-1
Severity: normal
In the process of my work I download a large number of articles from
scientific journal sites. Konqueror reliably crashes if I click on the "back"
button while it is auto-loading a pdf file linked from the article download
page. However, the crash happens after a certain time of konqueror usage and
with several tabs open, which I cannot replicate. I just know it will crash,
but can't predict how soon. This will make debugging difficult unless I build
kdebase with debugging symbols, which is not going to be easy I guess. So,
this bug caused work loss for me a number of times, but I'll set the severity
to normal due to the difficulty of replication.
The pdf is usually loaded with JavaScript like this:
function loadPDF() {
setPDFLoadedFlag();
// Scan through all links on page looking for the one that
// matches the PDF download. Why do we do this arcane trick
// instead of just duplicating the URL? Because of a
// situation where the page is being proxied and passed through
// a link rewriter, which can't handle JavaScript. This
// bit of code, by determining the autoload URL at runtime,
// picks up the rewritten URL and uses that.

for (i = 0; i < document.links.length; i++) {
link = document.links[i];
path = link.pathname;
if ((path.length >= id.length + 4
&& path.substring(path.length - id.length - 4) == id +
".pdf")
||
(path.length >= mjid.length + 4
&& path.substring(path.length - mjid.length - 4) == mjid +
".pdf"))
{
// found match
window.location = link.href;
break;
}
}
}
