Hello, today I was hacking around an existing plasmoid to add IP address information and I thought of using the geolocation DataEngine. Investigation with plasmaengineexplorer showed that it returned no results, only a "location" source with no information. As I don't have gpsd running, I remembered it relied on an external service to get IP address information, and so I checked the debug output.
Debug output showed that: plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/plasma EngineExplorer::addSource: adding "location" plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/plasma EngineExplorer::addSource: getting data for source "location" plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/plasma EngineExplorer::addSource: connecting up now plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/plasma Geolocation::sourceRequestEvent: "location" plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/kio (Scheduler) KIO::SchedulerPrivate::doJob: KIO::SimpleJob(0x22fb020) plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/plasma Ip::update: Fetching http://iplocationtools.com/ip_query.php plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/plasma EngineExplorer::addSource: adding "location" plasmaengineexplorer(2309)/plasma EngineExplorer::addSource: er... already there? Looking at that address show that it's no longer there, it only returns 0.0.0.0 MOVED 0.0.0.0 and in fact iplocationtools now moved to an API key based query and a completely different syntax, hence it basically no longer works. What should be done? Disable the non-gpsd part of the geolocation dataengine, or find a different solution? As mgraesslin noted on IRC, this issue will also affect *all* released versions of plasma so far. -- Luca Beltrame - KDE Forums team KDE Science supporter GPG key ID: 6E1A4E79
