Description S. Burmeister 2005-11-12 11:33:01 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
OS:                Linux

When one uses the "Listening-to" plug-in to display what amarok plays and amarok hangs, kopete hangs too.

this would be a DCOP communication deadlock problem or similar and i'm nto sure we'll be able to fix this easily, if at all.

I can confirm the bug.

Should be fixable by moving the communication process out of the Kopete UI thread, no?
Comment 4 Roman Jarosz 2010-01-17 11:44:37 UTC 
Please update to newer version as we don't have manpower to support Kopete in KDE 3
Comment 5 Jesse Litton 2010-01-18 13:35:08 UTC 
The problem has always been with a "newer" version (i.e. everything current for a 3 year stretch).

I don't know if the problem still exists in 4.4:  Amarok is much more stable, and I don't really use Kopete very often anymore.
