akregator crashing at start up

[tj.trevelyan@…]

akregator fails to start on my system (10.7). See attached log.

There is also a dialog about not being able to load the 'metakit' plugin.

Further info that seems relevant to this bug:

I deleted akregator's config files:

$ rm -rf ./Library/Preferences/KDE/share/apps/akregator ./Library/Preferences/KDE/share/config/akregatorrc

and then it worked once again.

However I then went into preferences and made my customisations to its settings. This led to it crashing once again.

After some trail and error, I found the setting that is causing it to crash:

Preferences -> Browser -> Tabs -> 'Show close button on each tab'

After turning this on, akregator starts to crash, and then fails to start altogether.

I don't know, but suspect that other settings also cause it to be unstable.

I can indeed reproduce the bug with version 4.11.1, which is the present one in Macports.

However, it seems more to be bug to report upstream (​https://bugs.kde.org), as it consists in a bad access error, which is not likely to be due to the Macports install by itself.
