Description Juha Tuomala 2008-04-30 12:34:32 UTC
Description of problem:

it crashes with:

process 3258: arguments to dbus_message_new_method_call() were incorrect,
assertion "_dbus_check_is_valid_path (path)" failed in file dbus-message.c line
1074.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.
  D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace
KCrash: Application 'kbluelock' crashing...
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.

How reproducible:

Comment 1 Gilboa Davara 2008-04-30 14:37:25 UTC
I cannot seem to reproduce this bug on my F8 and I don't have a rawhide machine
@work.

I'll try to reproduce it during the week-end.

Comment 2 Gilboa Davara 2008-05-04 07:56:17 UTC
Reproduced.
kdebluetooth seems to be incompatible with the current upstream bluez version.
I'll see if I can solve it myself (given the fact that upstream is more-or-less
dead).

Comment 3 Kevin Kofler 2008-05-04 14:19:13 UTC
Can you figure out where in the source code the failing D-Bus call is located?

Comment 4 Juha Tuomala 2008-05-06 14:46:10 UTC
Well, this doesn't crash anymore. But if i check both boxes for lock operations
and then flip-flop the bt in selected phone, it doesn't do anything, no screen
lock whatsoever.

Subject: crashes --> doesn't work

kdebluetooth-1.0-0.41.beta8.fc9.i386

Comment 5 Juha Tuomala 2008-05-07 07:42:48 UTC
eh...today is odd day number (7th) so it *crashes* again.... grrr. 

same error as in inital comment.

Comment 6 Gilboa Davara 2008-05-08 08:18:53 UTC
kdebluetooth is horribly broken under F9. Seems like a compatibility problem
with that latest bluez.
As upstream is completely dead, I'm trying solve the problem myself.
Hopefully a solution will be found before F9-release. (But I'm not very optimistic.)

Comment 8 Steven M. Parrish 2008-06-21 17:14:58 UTC
Is this still an issue?  Please give us an update, and even though upstream may
seam dead go ahead a report it to them and add upstream info to this report.
