  • Bug#1102651: drkonqi: tries to launch multiple times per second and fai

    From JuliusZet@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jul 23 17:20:01 2025
    Package: drkonqi
    Version: 6.3.4-1
    Followup-For: Bug #1102651

    Dear Maintainer,

    I did a fresh Trixie installation yesterday using the RC2 netinst iso and then installed the KDE-Plasma desktop environment with "apt install kde-plasma-desktop".

    After a reboot my journal gets flooded with the same messages, as other users already reported.

    I am looking at the commit that introduced the ConditionUser=!@system check that seems to be the reason for those journal messages: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/drkonqi/-/commit/7dca985d21d76a98b4d39196404060c928afb9f4

    To me the commit message sounds like running drkonqi as root is not supported.

    Executing
    "systemctl --global disable drkonqi-coredump-launcher.socket" as root and "systemctl --user enable drkonqi-coredump-launcher.socket" as my user
    and rebooting once again seems to fix it.

    But I am kindly asking if there would be a way for you as the maintainer to fix it in the package. Because, if I understand it correctly, everybody who installs the KDE-Plasma desktop environment would have this issue because plasma-workspace depends on
    drkonqi.

    I would appreciate if it could be fixed before the official release of Trixie.

    Thank you very much in advance and have a nice day!

    Executing the command

    systemctl --user mask drkonqi-coredump-launcher.socket

    as root is probably a better work-around than what I mentioned in my previous message.

    I am still concerned though that a lot of people will install KDE Plasma and will get their journals spammed - unless they manually mask the unit.

    Is there really nothing we can do about this? :/
