kio_smb missing after update to KDE 3.3 (SuSE 8.2)
Hello list members: I sent this message yesterday to the SLE list, but maybe this is the appropiate place to ask my question: Today I found out that Konqueror on my SuSE 8.2 box doesn't show Samba/CIF shares, returning the following error message: "Couldn't create slave I/O process: Klauncher returned Unknown protocol 'smb'." (well, something to this account, my installation is in Spanish). My first thought was that the update to KDE 3.3 might have broken the smb protocol support in Konqueror, but I can't be sure as I didn't use that feature before the update. While looking into the problem, I found that in /opt/kde3/share/services the 'smb.protocol' file is missing, as well as the 'kio_smb.so' and 'kio_smb.la' files in /opt/kde3/lib/kde3. I further checked the kdebase3-samba.rpm provided by SuSE (August 19), and found that those files are missing from the rpm provided for the 8.2 distribution as well, while they are present on the equivalent rpm provided for version 9.1. I would think that this must be a packaging error, as KDE 3.3 on SuSE 8.2 should not differ so much from KDE 3.3 on SuSE 9.1, but I can't be sure as I haven't seen others on the lists complaining about the same problem. Has anybody else experienced the same problem after updatin SuSE 8.2 to KDE 3.3? How can I make the smb protocol support work again in Konqueror? Thank you very much in advance! -- Andreas Philipp Noema Ltda. Bogotá, D.C. - Colombia

but SuSE 9.0....
Yes, kdebase3-samba for 9.2 contains the same files, but not the rpm issued for 8.2. I have filed a bug report with SuSE, but I still wonder why nobody else would have mentioned the problem before. Thank you! -- Andreas Philipp Noema Ltda. Bogotá, D.C. - Colombia
