[Stephan Kulow]

Your message with subj: konsole crashes / will not start from menu or taskbar but launches fine from rxvt or meta-r

I agree, "make cvs-clean" should clean all. Anyway, no bug in Konsole source.

has caused the attached bug report to be marked as done.

This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with.
If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the
bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith.

(NB: If you are a system administrator and have no idea what I'm
talking about this indicates a serious mail system misconfiguration
somewhere.  Please contact me immediately.)

Package:           konsole
Version:           KDE 3.0.3 
Severity:          crash
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.3 solaris 8 on an Ultra 60
OS:                Solaris
OS/Compiler notes: much experience getting kde / qt to agree with solaris / libs

I build kde from cvs.  Previous build was from a checkout of KDE_3_0_BRANCH from a while back.  Konsole worked great in that build.  This build is an update of KDE_3_0_BRANCH after 3.0.3 was released.  Everything from libpng to qt was recompiled.  Qt was upgraded to 3.0.5.  After resolving some stupid libpng issues (conflicting major versions) I got a finished build of kde 3.0.3.  There are no stale bins or configs, the kde prefix was completly removed before rebuild and install as with qt.  I even tried removing my .kde* files from my user.

Konsole launches and works fine if you launch it from an rxvt or the 'meta/window-r run box'.  Any combination of launching from menu or taskbar button causes it to not launch.  I have launched rxvt -e bash --noprofile --norc from the task bar to doublecheck the paths and ld paths... nothing is out of place.. in fact, I can launch konsole from that bash shell.  I cannot seem to figure out how to make konsole generate useful information on why it fails.  I would be glad to assist a kde developer on tracking this down.  At the moment... I have tried everything from my standard debugging bag of tricks.
