[Bug 281679] Re: Could not find service 'kfmclient'
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running apport-collect 281679 and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue. ** Changed in: kdelibs (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/281679 Title: Could not find service 'kfmclient' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/281679/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 281679] Re: Could not find service 'kfmclient'
Thanks for looking at the bug. Can no longer test it with a currently supported Ubuntu version because I have stopped using Ubuntu as a desktop OS (for quite a while now). It did not sufficiently support the hardware in my Asus notebook. Specifically the NVidia Optimus dual video card, for which a driver is not made available by NVidia (NVidia in 2010: no plans to support Optimus on Linux at this time)and project Bumblebee had not yet started at that time. Also a sdcard driver was not available and the USB 3.0 speed dropped to extremely slow because of driver bugs. This lead me to conclude that Ubuntu (Linux in general) was not suited as a desktop OS and I'd better switch to Windows (7). No regrets: Windows 7 is a great improvement to previous versions and when I need a server OS environment for e.g. webdevelopment I simply use either XAMPP or VirtualBox to start Debian in a virtual environment. IMHO: Windows is not a suitable server OS but Linux is not a suitable desktop OS... The problem is not Linux itself but lacking commitment and support from hardware manufacturers (which is a pity but nevertheless a fact).

This bug can be closed. The problem being described was really only going to be an issue during the time when there were KDE 3.5 binaries being run on a KDE 4 machine. This time is long past and so there is no need to keep this around.

[Bug 281679] Re: Could not find service 'kfmclient'
This is actually a general problem with all KDE3.5 apps under KDE4. The issue appears to be that there are separate directories /usr/share/applications/kde and /usr/share/applications/kde4, and the desktop files construct separate sycoca files. Since kfmclient.desktop is only installed in the kde4 directory, the KDE 3.5 apps can't find it in their sycoca. A simple fix is just to make a symlink from the kde4 file into the kde directory. I.e: cd /usr/share/applications/kde sudo ln -S ../kde4/kfmclient* . kbuildsycoca and the problem disappears. I will be filing a bug against Konqueror for this, but it afflicts all KDE4 services in KDE3.5 apps. -- Could not find service 'kfmclient' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/281679 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The kde-core binary package needs to depend against kdebase. ** Changed in: meta-kde (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged -- Could not find service 'kfmclient' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/281679 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes,that fixes it. Looks like there's a dependency hidden in there.
