Bug#760472: korganizer: Korganizer crashes when adding "traditional KDE calendar" fails to find any plugins
Package: korganizer
Version: 4:4.14.0-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I was setting up a fresh Debian/Jessie installation (but with an old /home),
and noticed that my Korganizer
lost its old calendar settings. Could not add my calendar, korganizer crashed
on me.
This happens every time I try to follow these steps:
1. Right-click on the calendars window
2. Add calendar
3. Choose "KDE Calendar (traditional)"
4. See the "KDE Compatibility Assistant". Click "Next"
5. See the dialog "Step 1: Select a KDE resource plugin". No plugins are
listed. There is a narrow
white box on the left of the window, the rest is background grey.
6. Click "Next"
7. Get a crash report dialog. It says "Executable: akonadi_kcal_resource PID:
26254 Signal: Segmentation fault (11) Time: Thu 4-Sep 13:17:31".
Unfortunately I did not get any stack trace, probably need to install more
packages...
Small observations that may be helpful, or not:
* This is a fresh installation of Debian/Jessie (upgrade failed, but that's
another story)
* My /home was copied over from an older Debian/wheezy, so it may have some
older settings
* I tried to get access to a calendar file on a remote server, using the fish:
protocol, but never got so far in the process
* I have seen korganizer crashes on my other workstation every now and then,
possibly related to refreshing remote calendars, but can not be sure.
* The same happens on a newly created account, with nothing but the defaults in
/home
* The fact that the assistant does not show any plugins is disturbing. I do not
know what it is expected to show, nor where those should come from.
If there is something I can try, or some more information, feel free to ask. I
know how to use gdb and other tools, and can invest a little time in digging
into this, if necessary.
If you have any suggestions for workarounds, that would be helpful.
