HELP -- I killed Kuroo

[diamond]

I somehow managed to hose Kuroo, and now it crashes every time I try to open it. When I run it from the command line, it appears briefly, then I get the following output:

Code: Select all

kbuildsycoca running...
kded: WARNING: [KDEDModule* Kded::loadModule(const KService*, bool)] Could not load library. [ libavahi-qt3.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ]
kded: WARNING: [KDEDModule* Kded::loadModule(const KService*, bool)] Could not load library. [ Library files for "libkded_dnssdwatcher.la" not found in paths. ]

kio (KIOConnection): ERROR: Header read failed, errno=104
kio (KIOConnection): ERROR: Header has invalid size (-1)
QMultiInputContext::changeInputMethod(): index=0, slave=xim


And Kuroo goes away and the KDE crash handler appears.

What have I done? How can I fix this? I can still run emerge from the command line, but there are times when I find Kuroo useful. I'd like to have it back.

Looks like some of the required libs can't be found. Have you tried unmerging and re-emerging kuroo?

Yeah, I tried that. No change.

What changes did you recently make to your system?

From a bit of research around the web, is it possible you just messed up avahi?

unmerge and re-emerge avahi maybe? However, that still leaves the issue with the kded lib... if your kde daemon is messed... then well, I don't know.

Hopefully I'm just on the wrong track and it's something simple, but I'm not seeing it. Maybe some more information about what changes you made to cause this might help.

OK, from what I recall, the last thing I did was an attempt to re-install avahi in order to resolve the conflict between it and mDNSResponder. That didn't work, so I removed avahi entirely.

Now I can't seem to re-install it. It fails when trying to build gtkhtml. Here is the error message:

Remove msdnresponder and compile avahi with correct flag to emulate msdnresponder .. I don't remember it exactly right now, but search for my name and avahi and you should find post where I solved this problem with avahi. I don't know if it helps with yhe update problem, but it might solve avahi problem.
