[Solved] Reporting bugs in KDE 5?

#1 Post by Chiefahol2 »

Hi again

I'm trying to list bug reports (holy moly there are a lot of bugs!) but the cli is a bit too hard to get through. :oops:

The GUI 'Reportbug' doesn't open every time and i'm not sure why, what is the command to open it graphically?

Distro is Debian KDE testing.

Solution: Ensure python3-gi-cairo and gir1.2-vte-2.91 packages are installed and it will work fine.

Why are you using testing, if you do not know the most basic things? Just open the terminal and type

Code: Select all

reportbug --exit-prompt --ui gtk2
By the way, maybe this bug is listed here.

Newer software, figured i could help report issues. Is there already too many people doing that? It's definitely possible this desktops too 'hectic' for me, KDE5 doesn't wanna stay up for more then a few hours and it HATES file transfers. :cry:

Cheers!

Yes that's the exact bug, thanks again. :mrgreen:

I suggest you post problems here to see if others have the same. I'm using Plasma 5.12 and don't have "staying up" problems, easily going a week between boots and then only because I leave for a day and shut it down. 5.12 is much improved from 5.8 which did have a number of bugs and crash problems.

That's not a KDE bug, but you probably know that already. :mrgreen:

The crashes were really consistent, using Plasma 5.12.4 on Debian 10. Clearing the ~/.cache folder might have fixed this though!

I'll keep coming back here, seems i might be able to tame it after all. :mrgreen:
