How to reproduce: 1. Open KDE Partition Manger from the Application Launcher or running partitionmanager in Konsole 2. Right click on any unmounted partition and select "Edit Mount Point..." 3. In the Path field, click "Select..." 4. The following error will appear twice: "Unable to create io-slave. Cannot talk to klauncher: Not connected to D-Bus server" Running in Konsole gives no output. Running dbus-launch partitionmanager also causes the same problem.
Strange, it works here. You won't see console output unless you run it as "sudo partitionmanager" as partition manager relaunches itself with root priveleges, so original non-root version doesn't print anything. So can you try and see if it prints anything more useful in terminal?
Running it with sudo causes the problem to not occur. If it helps, running it normally gives me a prompt from KDE su. This is the command it says is being executed: KDE_FULL_SESSION=true XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000 /usr/bin/partitionmanager --dontsu
I arrive to replicate the bug. it seems to come that arch dbus package is build without "--enable-x11-autolaunch"
Thanks for figuring this out. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to look at this myself. So I think this is up to arch to fix. Don't think I can do much from within partition manager.

(In reply to Severin Beutler from comment #6) > Postet in the archlinux-Bugtracker: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/59143 Next version (4.0) will use KAuth, so it should be resolved anyway. You can already try kauth branch in kpmcore and partitionmanager repositories, it works reasonably well.
