Title:
  Konversation crashes on quit - please package latest version

Status in konversation package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in konversation source package in Yakkety:
  Triaged
Status in konversation source package in Zesty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [SRU PROPOSAL FOR YAKKETY]

  [Impact]
  When editing a server of a named network, a crash reproducibly happens. Since the bug occurs in a copy constructor, there could be other crashes related to this, though still within the scope of the server settings dialog. The bug was significant enough to warrant a bugfix release from upstream.

  [Test Case]
   1. Start konversation.
   2. The Server Settings dialog should be, by default, shown immediately. If not, navigate to File → Server List or use F2.
   3. Expand one of the networks to show the servers. The default should provide the Freenode network with server chat.freenode.net:8001.
   4. Select a server by clicking on it.
   5. Click the edit button.
   6. CRASH!

  [Regression Potential]
  There does not seem to be anywhere else that bypass_Proxy is expected to be unset, therefore it seems the regression potential is small, at least for the bugfix. The other addition that comes with this bug fix is translations for AppData metadata. It is certainly possible that there could be errors in these translations that could lead to additional bugs, but since these are additions that aren't in the current version, this wouldn't be a regression so much as new bugs, and would have a relatively small impact regardless.

  [Original Bug Report]
  The Konversation website https://konversation.kde.org/ says "Konversation 1.6.2 released! (August 4th, 2016)". Notes say: Konversation 1.6.2 is a hotfix release that fixes an unfortunate severe crash condition that crept into 1.6.1.

  Perhaps packaging the newest version would fix the crash.
