Description Nick Blackledge 2004-10-04 09:40:07 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

With the winpopup plugin enabled kopete will always crash after about 20 seconds. It says it is impossible to complete a backtrace but it thinks libpthread_db.so is to blame for some reason.

When I try to run kpopup I can actually get some backtrace information out of it which may be somehow related to the winpopup error as they are similar programs.

I hope this is helpful.

well, thanks for trying...

unless someone recoded it without me knowing, the winpopup plugin is not at 
all connected to kpopup, thus the backtrace isn't must use.

in any case the problem is most likely due to the fact the winpopup is:
a) out of date with respect to the new kopete api
b) built for samba 2 (and i suspect you're using samba 3)

(a) can be fixed relatively easily from what i understand, it's just i haven't 
had nearly the time to do it. (b) is probably easily fixable, though to do it 
"correctly" the plugin would have to be rewritten since i believe samba3 has 
a libsamba that makes sending messages simple.

There have been a lot of changes to the winpopup plugin throughout the years (and this is a very old report). Are you still using Kopete with Winpopup? If so, does it still crash?
