I tried to upgrade a P4HT 64 bit 12.1/4.9.5 installation to 12.2/4.10.5[1] using zypper, but every session start segfaults in kdeinit4 without ever painting any kind of panel or app starter. Is this a known problem, and if
Did you created a new user and see if the session still crashes there ? It can easily be that the KDE4 config contains certain settings from 4.9 that are not compatible with 4.10. With such upgrades it is always advisable to also try it with a new user on that system to see if it is not the existing configuration that causes the crash. This is certainly not an known issue. Please also check if all KDE packages have been upgraded and that you don't have a 4.9.5 package still around which could cause issues
so, is it expected to be solved before 12.2 support ceases?
12.2 support focuses on the support of openSUSE 12.2, this means that KDE 4.9 is supported. That the KDE:Release:410 repository is offered, doesn't automatically mean that this repository is officially supported with 12.2. It is just a courtesy from the KDE team to provide a newer KDE version to an older distribution.
Exactly what package(s) is/are responsible for the existence of panel and app starter in KDE4?
That would be kdebase4-workspace. Regards Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
