Bug Description

Tested on both Kubuntu 23.10 and the early version of 24.04. Currently I'm running 24.04 and current version of kio-gdrive is 23.08.4-0ubunt

Google account setup works fine, and I can see Google Drive in system settings

If I try access through Dolphin it just keeps loading forever

I have not been able to trace any logs that even hints at what could be going wrong

The only output so far that might be a clue is:

```
rohdef@rff-trifork ~> kioclient5 exec gdrive:/
kf.service.services: KApplicationTrader: mimeType "x-scheme-handler/gdrive" not found
```

And yes, I both ran kdeinit5 and rebooted the machine :)

I am having the same problem it just hangs indefinitely.

```
ioclient5 exec gdrive:/<email address hidden>

it never open a new window to log in, it also doesnt work if I am already logged in via the kde settings. I am wondering if it might be related to me changing desktop environments? I originally installed Ubuntu with gnome and later switched to KDE Plasma. If there is any kind of verbose output or logs I can check for this plugin that might help narrow down the issue but the system logs dont show anything. For kicks i ran the command as sudo in the hopes that is might be a permissions issue, this is the output (no difference in behavior still just hangs)

```
sudo kioclient5 exec gdrive:/<email address hidden>
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'

@secularmetal In this case I suspect it's not related to switching, since my system has been running KDE since installed :) But a switch in environments might cause hidden issues indeed and there is a risk you run into something, if you haven't already it might be worth checking if the `kubuntu-desktop` metapackage is worth installing - however, before you do, do a google search, I haven't checked if it has/causes conflicts with the vanilla ubuntu

Our signon-ui is too old. Will have to SRu it. Too late for noble. kio-gdrive is no longer provided by default due to the excessive issues.
