--- Comment #4 from Fuchs <deve...@fuchsnet.ch> --- (In reply to Kai Uwe Broulik from comment #3) > The commit that changed this behavior is [1] which was in *before* the 5.7.0 > final release, so this is not a regression that occured in 5.7.1. Odd, because it worked for me in 5.7.0 and only broke after updating to 5.7.1. I shall assume packaging, then. > The previous method used by just using the DBus service name was > insufficient and wrong and worked purely by chance with Amarok but did not > with eg.

End users simply won't care whose fault it is. It worked, it no longer works, they see the error in plasma. So at least a workaround would be nice, because fixing it does not only require it being commited to amarok (which, as far as I can see, didn't happen yet) but also someone making a release out of that and it ending up with packagers. That might take a while, given amarok activity, and in the meantime it stays broken for users. As a minor sidenote: as I wrote it works in the media player control plasmoid, so either that one uses what you consider a wrong method to, or it has a way which would not break it, maybe that's worth being investigated. > [1] > https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=plasma-desktop. > git&a=commit&h=0d6442d8374f87880de2aad044cd1563ed6fde75 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
