For a could of weeks now, I'm getting a near-constant spam of the following output when I run KDE software in a terminal window: kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar! kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar! kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar! kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar! kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar! Seems to happen in src/ioslaves/http/http.cpp:4567 I have no idea what this means or if it's significant or how to fix it though.
Journalctl is filled with this: Mar 24 08:02:15 Liberator dbus-daemon[1559]: [session uid=1000 pid=1559] Failed to activate service 'org.kde.kcookiejar5': timed out (service_start_timeout=120000ms) Mar 24 08:02:15 Liberator dbus-daemon[1559]: [session uid=1000 pid=1559] Activating service name='org.kde.kcookiejar5' requested by ':1.1125' (uid=1000 pid=29194 comm="http.so [kdeinit5] https local:/run/user/1000/klau")
kcookiejar5 is a kded service that manages cookies in KDE programs. The source code is located at https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/tree/master/src/ioslaves/http/kcookiejar, the binary for example at the opensuse distribution in package kio, is designed as kded module and available as dbus service org.kde.kcookiejar5.
Not a code issue; this is caused by the Plasma dev setup process which masks the system service, which apparently makes everyone unhappy. It will be fixed once we roll out the next-gen dev session infrastructure with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1715
