(Get the code!)
I am running Kubuntu 16.04 with the latest patches and Plasma 5.6. A few days ago I installed KGpg and created a key. It ran perfectly. Then an update came down the pipe. Now, I cannot start KGpg from my user menu or from a user Konsole. The attempt aborts with the message
"QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. ... "
Systemctl shows I have two dbus services running:
dbus.service loaded active running D-Bus System Message Bus
dbus.socket loaded active running D-Bus System Message Bus Socket
However, if in a Konsole I enter "kdesudo kgpg" it will start up and run as root.
Obviously this message is NOT a "harmless" and more than a mere nuisance if it prevents programs from being run. A LOT of these "nuisances" have popped up on Kubuntu and other distros using both Plasma 4 and 5 for over FOUR YEARS, and its not doing KDE's reputation any service.
KDE Neon is being built with QtQuick and QML and the bug has appeared on it as well, as evidenced by previous posts. That suggests that the bug is in QDBusConnection itself.
