Bug Description

Kopete crashes at startup without providing an error message.

On a hunch, I tried restarting dbus (/etc/init.d/dbus restart), had no effect.

If it absolutely must exit when it doesn't receive a reply, it should at least
provide the user with an error message, like the one printed in gdb, with
possible steps to fix it.

I'm attaching the gdb backtrace.

Jaunty,
% kopete --version
Qt: 4.4.3
KDE: 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0)
Kopete: 0.70.0

This crash seems to be a symbol mismatch, which was common in the earlier alphas.
The not replying thing was DBus saying that kopete crashed.
