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

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.
