Segfault? No. write(2, "ASSERT failure in QList<T>::at: "..., 101ASSERT failure in QList<T>::at: "index out of range", file /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qlist.h, line 456 But that has nothing to do with the reason. It is only complaining that there is no debug information. I don't even have /usr/include/qt4.

I tired contacting upstream earlier but got no answer. Most probably because I was not able to supply a meaningful bug report. Anyway: I tried strace to see at least with which file k9copy fails. Lo and behold - it was with /home/username/.kde/share/config/K9Copy (mind the capital letters). I always tried to delete ../apps/k9copyrc and that didn't change a thing. No wonder, that file does not seem to be used for ages. So I deleted ../config/K9Copy and k9copy worked again. Now I don't know why nor in what way K9Copy was corrupted. As a text file it seemed to be OK. With the huge amount of libraries and programs which k9copy loads I see that I won't have time to install all the sources and start a debug session. I'll switch back to "user-mode" and be happy with k9copy doing what it's supposed to do now. I learned one thing: making a 'program'-dbg package is a lot of work and many thanks go to everybody who ever supplied any to Debian. > > Greetings, Thank you for your consideration and greetings.
