Description Sebastian Vahl 2008-03-11 23:00:25 UTC
Description of problem:
Due to the change of making PackageKit the default graphical package manager 
I've tried to get it also working inside KDE. To test the update applet I've 
copied /usr/share/gnome/autostart/gnome-pk-update-icon.desktop 
to /etc/xdg/autostart and logged in into a clean user account. Right after the 
login plasma is crashing (backtrace is attached in the next comment)
If I remove the line "NotShowIn=KDE;XFCE;" and re-login and/or clean up the 
user account plasma isn't crashing anymore.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-packagekit-0.1.9-1.fc9.i386
kdebase-4.0.2-2.fc9.i386
kdebase-runtime-4.0.2-3.fc9.i386
kdebase-workspace-4.0.2-5.fc9.i386
kdelibs-4.0.2-10.fc9.i386
qt4-4.3.4-5.fc9.i386

How reproducible:
ever

Steps to Reproduce:
1. copy /usr/share/gnome/autostart/gnome-pk-update-icon.desktop 
to /etc/xdg/autostart
2. Login into KDE
3.
  
Actual results:
plasma is crashing

Expected results:
plasma should not crash

Additional info:
This is mostly a tracking bug for an upstream bug. So fedora specific 
discussions could be done here.

Upstream has closed the bug a few minutes ago with this changes:
http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=785140

Comment 3 Kevin Kofler 2008-03-13 11:56:15 UTC
Is this fix worth backporting to our packages? I'm not sure, as the bug is only 
reproducible with the NotShowIn, but maybe other applets with a legitimate 
NotShowIn=KDE can trigger this?

Comment 4 Than Ngo 2008-03-13 12:34:01 UTC
the fix is now included in kdebase-workspace-4_0_2-7_fc9
