Package: kaffeine
Version: 2.0.19-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: bugs at kojori.tel

Issue: 
While configuring kaffeine, scanning and adding channels to the channel list, I discovered an issue.
Here's the steps to recreate: 
1. From the main menu [Television]->[Channels]->[Start Scan]-> wait till scan completed.
2. From the "Scan Results" sub-window on the right hand side, highlight one single channel
3. While a single channel in the scan results highlighted, click on [Add Selected]
4. Click [Ok] button the in the righ lower corner to return the main application view. 

The issue - only one single channel can be added to the channel list. 
If an attempt is made to add more the one single channel from the "Scan results" to the channel list, Kaffeine application crashes as soon the [Ok] button is clicked, system logs showing a "segfault" message from kernel. 

See log below:
