SUMMARY When playing a game of Freecell, and you get to a point where the Autodrop should just complete (e.g. all cards in correct sequence), then it only does a few cards and then stops. You have to keep coaxing it along by clicking on another card, and it starts again, and then stops, etc. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Play a game of Freecell with Autodrop on 2. Get near the end and get all cards in correct sequence stacks 3. Autodrop will not complete OBSERVED RESULT Autodrop does not complete EXPECTED RESULT Autodrop should take any card that could go on the piles SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.0.5-arch1-1-ARCH (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: ?? KDE Frameworks Version: KDE Frameworks 5.56.0 Qt Version: Qt 5.12.2 (built against 5.12.1) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Entire Arch Linux OS was upgraded a couple of weeks ago.
Created attachment 119474 [details] Example where autodrop stops At this point if I double-click the nine of spades, the rest completes automatically without stopping. I had not used undo in this game.
Created attachment 119476 [details] SAved Freecell game with stuck autodrop This saved game is stuck with it's autodrop. I had to 'restart' autodrop by clicking on a card four times after this point.
Shlomi is this related to the changes you made to the solver?
Hi! Thanks for the report and the testcase. Here is a proposed fix patch: https://phabricator.kde.org/D20720 There also seems to be an issue where loading the game is very slow now.
Also see https://phabricator.kde.org/D20721
Sorry, how do I install this patch? I normally just download the latest version from the Arch Linux repositories.

Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo) shows this behavior, also. Autodrop works correctly in other games, only Freecell seems to be affected.

Actually, Simple Simon doesn't autodrop the completed suit stacks at all any more, but that's been reported in another bug report.
And I've just experienced "Forty & Eight" not auto-completing either, when I got to within about 10 cards from the end. Had to double-click each card except the last one.
I've seen auto drop repeated fizzle out on freecell, and AFAIK, only since ( at least WRT the Linux distro. I'm using ) it *seems* that there has been a separate library for the freecall solver: I.E., when running this command ldd /usr/bin/kpat | fgrep -i solv this is the output: libfreecell-solver.so.0 => /usr/lib64/libfreecell-solver.so.0 (0x00007fc93880c000)
All of you having this problem, can you try the flathub version of kpat https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.kde.kpat and see if you can still reproduce the issue?
Ran all updates. Uninstalled kpat through synaptic. Rebooted. Discoverer shows all up to date. Installed from Flathub. "Aborted due to failure." KDE Plasma version: 5.17.5 KDE Frameworks version: 5.66.0 Qt Version: 5.12.4 Kernel Version: 5.3.0-29 generic OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 4 x AMD A10-7700K Radeon R7, 10 Computer Cores 4C+6G Memory: 6.8 GiB of RAM (8GB physically installed).
Can you please be more specific? What gives the "Aborted due to failure." error?
(In reply to Albert Astals Cid from comment #15) > Can you please be more specific? > > What gives the "Aborted due to failure." error? Simply clicking on the install button. No other action. It never finishes. I have tried it three times now with the same error. There is no option to see any further information. I tried it again just now. 1. Went to https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.kde.kpat. 2. Clicked on the "Install" button. 3. Chose "Open with Discoverer". 4. Clicked on "Install" button. 5. Shows 100% on progress bar. 6. Flashes "Aborted due to failure" box for about 5 seconds, then it fades. That's it. Here's some other info that may help (or not)... flatpak: 1.4.3-1 Plasma-discover-flatpak-backend: 5.17.5-Oubuntu1~ubuntu19.10~ppa1 flatpak-xdg-utils-tests: 1.0.0.1 xdg-desktop-portal: 1.4.2-2
That'd be a bug somewhere else. For the sake of this bug report maybe install using the command line as described in the flathub web?
(In reply to Albert Astals Cid from comment #17) > That'd be a bug somewhere else. > > For the sake of this bug report maybe install using the command line as > described in the flathub web? Autodrop appears to work fine now. Removed Kpat and walked through adding the flatpak stuff. Barfed with the same "Abort due to error". This solved the abort error: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=309&t=163844# Installing via flatpak after that went without error. Is this the correct version?: KPatience 19.12.2 KDE Frameworks 5.66.0 Qt 5.13.2 Tried Freecell only. Will try other games as I have time.
That version sounds correct
Tried to make use of https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.kde.kpat I encountered multiple sets of information on how to approach that.

See comment #18. The flatpak version works for me.
With the flatpak version the autodrop still fizzles out for me with Freecell. It appears that the error might have been introduced around the time the freecell-solver seems to have been split off from the other code. With so many people stuck at home, it seems like fixing this could be one of the most solemn responsibilities for KDE right now. ;-)

Can you provide a saved game *.kpat file that reproduces the issue? Also which OS are you using the flatpak on?
Seems to work for everyone now
