Summary changed to:
KDE hyperlinks in do not work in a standard (non-kde) Ubuntu enviroment.
Description changed to:
-- UPDATE --
This seems to affect all KDE applications which use this code for
hyperlinks, not just amaroK. I have kept the orignal bug below as it highlights
the issue and gives good steps to re-produce.
-- END OF UPDATE --
On a standard Ubuntu Dapper (I doubt this affects KUbuntu)
installation. I installed Amarok. Went to the "About amaroK' menu
item in the "Help" menu. There is a link there to amarok.kde.org.
Clicking this link does not bring up firefox pointing at the
expected website. Instead, I see a rather cryptic error come up:
Could not launch the brower:
Could not find service 'kfmclient'.
I suspect that something has not been started/installed here. And I
fear it could affect other KDE applications running in Ubuntu, not
just amaroK. I have a feeling that amaroK/kdeinit is looking for
Konqueror, or a URL handler or something, but cannot find it (pure
guesswork here, I'm no coder).
Installed amaroK version is: 2:1.3.8-0ubuntu7 (according to
Synaptic).
If any more info is needed, please ask.
