Description bbutscheidt 2020-06-15 08:30:59 UTC
Maybe because of my yesterdays update, I start krusader and trying to activate the embedded terminal I get the messagebox which tells me it cannot be created and I should install konsole.
Konsole is still installed and starts without problems I am aware off.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start krusader
2. activate "Settings/Show Embedded Terminal"

My questions would be in the first place how I could collect more useful information.

OBSERVED RESULT
message box appears "Cannot Create Embedded Terminal // You can fix this by installing konsole"


EXPECTED RESULT
embedded Terminal should appear as usual

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS


KDE Frameworks 5.70.0
Qt 5.15.0 (built against 5.14.2)
The xcb windowing system

I downgraded the konsole package without success, now, after updating it again, it works like it should.

So it remains an unsolved mystery ...

Krusader uses a component called "konsolepart", which is shipped in the Konsole package. I think a reinstallation solved a misconfiguration left from the previous upgrade (Krusader does not load konsolepart directly, it uses another KDE component called KService).
