I investigated this issue a bit deeper yesterday. It seems that building rekonq on top of KDE 4.8 triggers this issue when the package is used with KDE 4.9. Probably a kind of binary incompatibility. But before making kubuntu-ppa/backports as a dependencie of the daily build, I want to make sure it has no side effects on KDE 4.8 users.
Can you try this build of rekonq (built with KDE 4.9) : https://launchpad.net/~yoann-laissus/+archive/testing2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kubuntu-default-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1028551 Title: no default search engine set To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kubuntu-default-settings/+bug/1028551/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
