It turned out that moving EITHER: ~/.kde/share/apps/akregator/Archive/feedlistbackup.mk4 ~/.kde/share/apps/akregator/Archive/archiveindex.mk4 out of the directory solved the problem, allowing akregator to start and touch a new feedlistbackup.mk4/archiveindex.mk4 file. I attached the feedlistbackup.mk4 file and the archiveindex.mk4 as well as ~/.kde/share/apps/akregator/data/feeds.opml as described in http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116482
Created attachment 187742 [details] strace output for akregator startup crash At the top of this file is some detail about the actions taken to make the crash happen (the corrupted files were stored in the holder/ directory)
