Hi, |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
In the KDEPIM full stack, I use only Kopete. Today I upgraded both |
| 21 |
kdepimlibs and kopete to 4.7.3. After the upgrading, Kwallet did not |
| 22 |
work properly (it displayed a totally blank window without any |
| 23 |
"wallets"). I started Kopete and immediately I encountered the error |
| 24 |
message: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
kopete(xxx) couldn't create slave: Unknown protocol 'file' |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Of course Kopete did not work with Kwallet, so I had to type my |
| 29 |
password manually. After typing the password, nothing happened in the |
| 30 |
Kopete window, and the error message I got from the terminal was |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
kopete(xxx) couldn't create slave: Unknown protocol 'https' |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
At first I thought there are some broken packages, but revdep-rebuild |
| 35 |
didn't help. I rebuilt kdepimlibs, Kwallet, and Kopete manually with |
| 36 |
emerge, didn't help either. I read the news (from eselect) again, |
| 37 |
found the wiki page, followed the direction althought I didn't use |
| 38 |
KMail or any other piece of software from the KDEPIM stack, it didn't |
| 39 |
work either. Eventually, I masked the packages (mentioned in the |
| 40 |
news) and downgraded kdepimlibs and Kopete to 4.6.3, and everything |
| 41 |
worked again! |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
Just to share my short story today. And I think KDEPIM should *not* |
| 44 |
be marked as stable at the moment. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Kindest regards, |
