Bug ID: 500690
Summary: kaccess crashes with a segfault when setting a
keyboard filter
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.3.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: maiphi.pub...@gmx.net
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0

backtrace
"System Settings/Accessibility/Keyboard Filters" has two issues that might or
might not be related:
1. The units of the debounce times don't make sense. The spin boxes accept
values in minutes ("min", default=500), where milliseconds should be used. Note
that typical values are 5 ms for a defer-like algorithm ("slow keys") and 30 ms
for an eager-like algorithm ("bounce keys").
2. When the settings are changed and "Apply" is pressed, kaccess crashes with a
segmentation fault. Backtrace is attached.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open system settings, go to "Accessibility" and select "Keyboard Filters".
2. Observe that the debounce times are given in units of "min".
3. Change something and press "Apply".
OBSERVED RESULT
A crash notification for kaccess opens. Bounce key delay is not saved. It seems
random to me if the settings have any effect at all.
EXPECTED RESULT
No crash. Properly set values from within a reasonable range so that the
algorithms actually work.
