[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#629944: kvpnc: program crashes everytime I want to start it

[Toni Mueller]

Package: kvpnc
Version: 0.9.6a-2
Severity: important


Hello,

on this computer, I am unable to start kvpnc (didn't try on any other
computer, yet). If I try to start it as a regular user, I get a dialog
box saying, that the program must be started as root (why?). Then, if I
open a root shell and try to start it as root, I get:

# kvpnc 
kvpnc(22643): Session bus not found 

KCrash: Application 'kvpnc' crashing...
sock_file=/root/.kde/socket-spruce/kdeinit4__0
Warning: connect() failed: : No such file or directory
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.
drkonqi(22644): Session bus not found 


I haven't yet figured out how to resurrect the problem.



Kind regards,
--Toni++
