Just upgraded Konqueror, now can't configure it
Hi -- I just "upgraded" to the latest Konqueror from 2.1.1-6 to
2.1.1.0-0.potato3. Is this an upgrade? The version numbers are
confusing.
(In /etc/apt/sources.list, I have:
deb http://kde.tdyc.com/ potato main crypto optional
Here are excerpts from running "apt-get install konqueror":
# apt-get install konqueror

...ie. it looks like everything downloaded and installed OK.)
Anyways, here's the problem: when I start the new version and go to the
"Settings|Configure Konqueror..." menu, I get a bunch of error dialogs:
There was an error loading module
'Settings/FileBrowsing/kcmkonq.desktop'
The diagnostic is:
There is *no* diagnostic message: apart from the "OK" button, that's
it. This dialog repeats for
'Settings/FileBrowsing/filetypes.desktop'
'Settings/FileBrowsing/konqhtml.desktop'
'Settings/FileBrowsing/cookies.desktop'
'Settings/FileBrowsing/proxy.desktop'
'Settings/FileBrowsing/useragent.desktop'
Ie., I have to hit "OK" 6 times on 6 different error dialogs just to get
to the configuration dialog. When I finally get there, most
configuration options are gone -- all I can configure is "Enhanced
Browsing" and "Netscape Plugins". Yayhh.
So is this a packaging error, ie. were a bunch of configuration modules
accidentally dropped on the floor between release 2.1.1-6 and
2.1.1.0-0.potato3? Or is it something else?
Thanks --
Greg
