Bug#800821: dolphin: Dolphin KPart no longer working on Konqueror
Package: dolphin
Version: 4:15.08.1-1
Severity: important
Recently after one of my daily dist-upgrade cycles on my Testing laptop, I've
noticed that Konqueror only offers Terminal and FSView views, defaulting to the
latter (which looks kinda cool, but it's pretty much useless for daily usage).
No other views are offered under the view menu.
After studying for a bit, it turns out that Konqueror depends on Dolphin for
implementing the normal folder views. Cool, Dolphin is actually installed, and
works standalone, but not from inside Konqueror. I haven't modified any setting
since the (admittedly rough) transition to KDE5. Looks like Konqueror somehow
can't even see the relevant Dolphin KPart at all.
What I've tried so far?
- Reinstalling Dolphin: no luck
- Moving away my .kde directory (which doesn't seem to be used lately for
almost every KDE application except for Konqueror): still no luck
- Restarting KDE: sounds dunb, but there are still some stuff that is kinda
broken but gets fixed after a restart. Not this, sadly.
This has become annoying to me since Konqueror is my "daily driver" for file
management tasks when I'm on KDE - Dolphin is simply too underpowered for my
tastes, but it's amusing (to say the least) to learn that Konqueror needs
Dolphin nowadays for doing its thing. Anyway, dunno about filling this bug
report under Konqueror or Dolphin package, so I'm reporting under the latter
for now.
