Hi Curt,
I am not having this problem. The smb io_slave is from the package
kdebase-kio-plugins, and I have version 3.3.1-2 installed, which is up to
date as of today. I wonder if your Sid is completely up to date? I.e.,
have you done an apt-get upgrade recently? I have had problems before with
KDE where apps don't launch correctly when I upgrade only KDE and its
dependencies. There seem to be some dependencies that aren't mentioned,
but I can never figure out what exactly they are. However, after an
upgrade, things start to work again, even though the KDE versions didn't
change.
On the other hand, I get an illegal instruction error when I launch aptitude
(in graphical mode, i.e. with no arguments). Otherwise, it works in
command line mode. I'm completely up to date, so I don't know what's wrong
there.
Hope that helps,
Justin Guerin
