Bug Description

Binary package hint: wifi-radar

WiFi Radar crashes every time I log onto KDE. The problem is it does not crash immediately...It takes around 4-5 minutes before the crash occurs. The odd problem is that if I happen to run firefox at the time, it also crashes. The crash might be related to the firefox crash, but it always occurs before firefoxes. Once WiFi Radar crashes, it does not appear to crash anymore during that session.

Did you edit this file manually? It's incorrect and it is a reason why
wifi-radar isn't working.

I may have changed it a long time ago because I remember it simply
became 0 bytes long at some point, subsequently forgot about it,
uninstalled wifi-radar, and when upgrading to the latest ubuntu, i got
wifi-radar back and it started crashing (apparently in the upgrade
process, it didn't get overwritten with a correct one)!

Thank you!

So, just delete that file and reinstall wifi-radar. 'Empty conf file' is already reported as a bug, so it's a known problem. During upgrade, conf file will not get overwritten.

Feel free to reopen this bug if you think it doesn't deserve to get rejected.
