There are two issues here: 1) what is causing missing files in the dict packages. Personally, I cannot duplicate the situation, having re-installed the dictionaries. However, having packages sometimes not install correctly is a problem. Not sure how to combat that issue. Possibly a dpkg/apt command that could verify files exist. This would prove the integrity of the system (something like a fsck for installed packages), Anyway, rambling....
2) kmail should not crash on attempting to read a symlink. It should be graceful and report that the language pack is either corrupt or possibly missing. It should try working in the default locale/language anyway. (IMHO). So, I would call this at least related to kdepim/kmail in how it handles the exception - i.e. Not at all gracefully. -- (Kubuntu Intrepid) KMail crashes when I create a new message and try to access the body of the message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275218 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
