Version: 1:1.9.96.0~svn757194-1ubuntu2 (using KDE 4.0.0) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Just instaled KDE from ubuntu repository deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu gutsy main. When I click on the kplato icon, the application crashes on openning.

> It seems your installation is broken/incomplete cause we failed to load the native mimetype "application/x-vnd.kde.kplato". This is quite clear: KDE cannot load the custom mimetypes, probably because of a not correct installation/setup. Please use the distribution user support.
Thank you for your time. I will follow up this subject with kubuntu's support team. Luis Ribeiro Pino Toscano wrote: [bugs.kde.org quoted mail]

I was able to make it produce one for kplato if a added a separate xml file for kplato. Normally the mimetype is defined in kde.xml which contains definitions for all kde apps, I just copied the kplato one out into a separate file in the same directory and ran update-mime-database /usr/lib/kde4/share/mime. I tried the same for kplatowork, and it did *not* work ?! Note, this is on kubuntu 8.04 with the KDE 4.1 Beta 1 installed. On Debian it seems to work like a treat. Anybody?
