Description carlo 2011-04-03 23:58:55 UTC
Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

i'm using sabayon, which comes from gentoo
since i updated kde to latest version i experienced issues with calendar and holidays
i've read on the internet that one way to set it needs to launch  plasmaengineexplorer 
but whenever i do i get this error:
plasmaengineexplorer 
plasmaengineexplorer(8981): Session bus not found 
To circumvent this problem try the following command (with Linux and bash) 
export $(dbus-launch) 

KCrash: Application 'plasmaengineexplorer' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit
sock_file=/root/.kde4/socket-zabbayon/kdeinit4__0
Warning: connect() failed: : No such file or directory
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi directly
drkonqi(8982): Session bus not found 
To circumvent this problem try the following command (with Linux and bash) 
export $(dbus-launch) 

it tells me the very same thing even after i installed drkonqi and i lunch dbus

[dbus-launch 
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-ToU6uYALeJ,guid=81cffe9a708938dea44972f1000006c9
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID=8993
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_WINDOWID=81788929]

as for demons when i type ps -A they are:
 6438 ?        00:00:00 dbus-daemon
 7757 ?        00:00:00 avahi-daemon
 7758 ?        00:00:00 avahi-daemon
 8117 ?        00:00:00 dbus-launch
 8118 ?        00:00:01 dbus-daemon
 8212 ?        00:00:00 udisks-daemon
 8221 ?        00:00:00 udisks-daemon
 8668 ?        00:00:00 dbus-daemon
 8679 ?        00:00:00 dbus-daemon
 8938 ?        00:00:00 dbus-daemon
 8993 ?        00:00:00 dbus-daemon
though i fear most dbus demons appeared after some attempt of mine...]

anyone can help?

to be able to tell anything about it it needs to have a more detailed backtrace, has to be reproduce with debug packages installed

Hello! Plasma 4 was replaced by Plasma 5 four years ago by the KDE community. In that time we have made great strides in stability and functionality. We are closing all Plasma 4 bugs as most of them are no longer applicable to the new frameworks Plasma 5 is built upon. If you could, please re-test with the latest version of Plasma 5, and submit a new bug to "plasmashell" if you continue to have an issue. Thank you!
