SUMMARY
KDE connect fails to start, with error:
error activating kdeconnectd:
QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed", "Failed to execute
program org.kde.kdeconnect: No such file or directory")
This can be 'fixed, by editing the dbus service, changing the path to the
kdeconnect binary, to be a full absolute path; ie, edit
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.kde.kdeconnect.service , changing the
'kdeconnect' to be '/usr/bin/kdeconnect'
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Upgrade from a working system to KDE 6.1
OBSERVED RESULT
KDE Connect fails to start, with error:
"error activating kdeconnectd:
QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed", "Failed to execute
program org.kde.kdeconnect: No such file or directory")"
EXPECTED RESULT
KDE Connect continues to start at boot without any interaction.
