DBus upgrade breaks KDE?

stiffitydoodah · 2015-01-23 21:08:59

Hi,

I'm new to Arch and the forums, so I hope I'm posting this in the right place.

I ran a full system upgrade yesterday, which upgraded dbus and libdbus from 1.12 to 1.14. Today, after a shutdown and startup, startx (configured through .xinitrc to exec startkde) seems to start an X session, but all I see is a dialog box that says "Unable to sync dbus", with an OK button that kills the session.

While this was going on, I was able to run my Enlightenment desktop, but not Plasma 5.

Anyway, the moral of the story is, I was able to restore my normal Plasma desktop functionality by reverting dbus and libdbus to 1.12. So I suppose I'm writing this post as both a heads-up and to ask if anyone else has had this problem.

Here's the log from the X server dying:

This was supposedly fixed today with plasma-workspace 5.1.2-4. (the fix worked for me).

p.s. the kde5/plasma next thread on here is good to check if you run into issues: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184439&p=19

Outstanding. Both of those things are what I needed to hear. Thanks!
