Description Mathieu Brabant 2013-09-11 14:22:16 UTC
Overview
kMail takes 25 seconds to start when assigned a keyboard shortcut

Steps to Reproduce
1- Open Shorcut and Gestures system settings
2- Create a new shortcut to kMail by going to Custom Shortcuts - KMenuEdit - New - Global Shortcut - K-Menu Entry and entering a keyboard trigger and selecting the Internet - kMail application under action.
3- Use keyboard shortcut to launch kMail.

Actual Results
Takes 25 seconds for kMail to start up.

Expected Results
Takes 1-2 seconds for kMail to start up.

Additional Information
Happens on two computers, one Fedora 18 the other Fedora 19, both KDE 4.10.5.
Same behaviour when assigning the shortcut using kMenuEdit.
Starting kMail from the Application Launcher, kRunner or the command line works fine.
If I comment out the line "X-DBUS-StartupType=Unique" in kMail's desktop file, this problem does not happen.
I tried shortcuts with ark, kfontview and korganizer and this problem did not happen.

Just tried the steps to reproduce, and kmail took 1 second to start. Probably already fixed.
