Bug#710539: kde-workspace-bin: kde hangs on startup when non-empty .kde/share/config/kxkbrc
Package: kde-workspace-bin
Version: 4:4.8.4-6
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
KDE hangs on startup on the "tools" icon (the second one) in the default splash
screen.
It seems to hang indefinitely.
This started after an upgrade.
If found that removing .kde/share/config/kxkbrc fixed the problem. The file is
generated when using the keyboard settings tool in systemsettings.
See kxkbrc attached.
