[opensuse-factory] Does kde4 break crossover? (not the app, but the .desktop logic)
Listmates, I don't use crossover office that often, but since it was still on my system, I thought I would test it on kde4 beta 2. It doesn't run. The problem appears to be some mix-up in the way the old .desktop files from kde3 work (or don't) with kde4. Specifically, the .desktop file for word has the Exec line as: Exec=/home/david/.cxoffice/winxp/desktopdata/cxassoc/Scripts/cxoffice-d8d97273-7f23-4dba-919d-512cbfc6a2c8:application_msword But it doesn't work. Attempting to launch it from the command line, give the following error: 00:55 alchemy:~/.kde4/share/config> /home/david/.cxoffice/winxp/desktopdata/cxassoc/Scripts/cxoffice-d8d97273-7f23-4dba-919d-512cbfc6a2c8:application_msword cxstart:error: you must specify the document to open with cxstart cxstart:error: --start-only, --start-default, --start-mime, --start-class and --start-verb can only be used with --start cxstart:error: try 'cxstart --help' for more information OK so: 01:11 alchemy:~/.kde4/share/config> /home/david/.cxoffice/winxp/desktopdata/cxassoc/Scripts/cxoffice-d8d97273-7f23-4dba-919d-512cbfc6a2c8:application_msword --start-default cxstart:error: --start-default can only be specified once cxstart:error: try 'cxstart --help' for more information Hmmm, navigating to the actual shortcut and executing it from konqueror: /home/david/.cxoffice/winxp/desktopdata/cxmenu/Shortcuts/cxoffice-d8d97273-7f23-4dba-919d-512cbfc6a2c8.winword Works! Is there something I can do to update the kde3 cxoffice .desktop files and menu entries to work with kde4 short of recreating all of them? Or, is this a bug that just needs to be reported? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
