[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#458784: kaffeine: Kaffeine silently dies when starting when playlist not found

[Don Davis]

Package: kaffeine
Version: 0.8.7-1
Followup-For: Bug #458784

I had a Samba file system mounted and was playing videos from it. The next day I tried to start Kaffeine and it kept silently dying when starting. 
Kaffeine kept quitely dying because the directory it had used last was no longer attached but still mounted. As soon as I unmounted the Samba directory, Kaffeine started up going to that directory (which was empty because it was not mounted).

Kaffeine shoul;d not just silently die while trying to find a no longer attached file system. The process should time out, possibly with an error message.
