kf5 and kde 4.13 cohabitation : issue launching dolphin

After installing the new (kf5) package group from [extra], I went back to my usual openbox desktop. When trying to launch dolphin (kde 4.13 version from [extra]) I got this :

 % dolphin
 Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QString)
 Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceRemoved(QString)

No dolphin windows appears and the program does not exit until CTRL-C.

Since kf5 relies on recent dependencies and the problem was looking related to upower, I did update upower to

aur/upower-git-systemd

and dolphin is now running fine.

The two previous "No such signal" lines are still there, though.
