I had the same problem, and I think I had found the bug.
I tried to report the bug to the kde team, but they did not
take notice.
Release: kde-1.1 (Package: kdesupport, mimelib, datetime.cpp )
There is a problem causing segfaults on Linux/Alpha/RedHat 6.0.
Particularily in kmail on writing a new mail.
void DwDateTime::_FromUnixTime(DwUint32 aTime)
{
time_t t = aTime + mZone*60; !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HERE!!!
#if defined(USE_PORTABLE_GMTIME)
struct tm tt
my_gmtime_r(&t, &tt);
#elif defined(HAVE_GMTIME_R)
struct tm tt
gmtime_r(&t, &tt);
#else
struct tm tt = *gmtime((time_t*)&t);
#endif
mYear = tt.tm_year + 1900;
mMonth = tt.tm_mon + 1;
mDay = tt.tm_mday;
mHour = tt.tm_hour;
mMinute = tt.tm_min;
mSecond = tt.tm_sec;
}
I changed DwUint32 to time_t !
Now it works.
(Probabely time_t is 64 bits on Alpha, while DwUint32 is only 32...)
