as i dig deeper inti this, i see that the qt5 packages on which the protonmail bridge depends themselves depend on wayland. is there a qt5 that doesn't need wayland? that itself could be the issue.
Hello,
Since I upgraded from Debian Jessie to Stretch,
the opening of TDE is slow, 10 seconds with a black screen...
Do somebody see the same time ?
Have a good day,

was just now trying to install the protonmail bridge bets, which is to allow existing email clients to work with protonmail. but the .deb install failed for lack of a litany of qt5 dependencies. i have a bunch of qt4 things installed and they seem to work alongside tde perfectly well. so i sought to install qt5-essentials, the first of the dependencies. after which -- i typically install packages from the commandline -- i got this unhappy display:

oh, and it also deleted xorg, though i quickly reinstalled that.
i'm hoping to make everyone play nice together, but before i do that i hope to back out of whatever i've gotten myself into, lest the machine surprise me at next reboot.
help!!

okay, managed to fix whatever was ailing apt such that it doesn't want to uninstall half my software anymore (undid what i found in /var/log/apt/history.log), so now i'm just trying to find out if there's a way to get tde to peacefully coexist with qt5 stuff, without asking anybody to write or port anything, which i'm loath to do. if there's a way and somebody tells me of it, i'll report back on whether protonmail can be made to work with kmail as its client.

Hi,
Is MTP well supported?
I have exotic Sailfish phone and when connected it is recognized as Camera.
When I try to write a file, it tells me it can not write to Camera, as it
is unsupported.
What do you think I should do?
thanks for your ideas in advance
regards
It looks like it worked (see below) but I logged out of the account and then
back in, and got the same thing. :-(

It only happens on one of the four accounts on my system; the others work
fine with Trinity.
I created a brand new account and it works flawlessly, so there must be
something broken in that one account, not in the Trinity installation. Any
clues as to what sort of files/directories are involved? Just exactly what
is xdg and what does it do/is it good for?

Hi,
On one account on my OpenSuSE Leap 42.3 system (the main account, of course),
I'm getting these messages after the login screen and before the desktop
appears:
1)

(These messages are displayed using xmessage, and can't be copied/pasted
since the desktop isn't active, so the above is my hand-copied version, which
has all the words, but not necessarily on the same lines.)
So I looked into the indicated file, and indeed there are a plethora of lines
containing <filename>kde-... (see attached). Apparently there are 'file and
directory permissions' problems /somewhere./ I have looked at the
permissions of all files in ~/.kde and they look okay (but is owner rw-
sufficient?) I looked at the r14-xdg-update script, but the code is opaque
(at least to me). I tried renaming ~/.kde to something else but the problem
persists; also tried removing socket-dir and tmp-dir, but that doesn't help
either. The script contains this unhelpful comment:

I'm not at all sure where to look and what to look for beyond this. How can
I get past this irritating situation?

The only think I can think of is your TDE install is somehow broken.
I've seen this error msg before and have always been able to fix it.
I'm out of ideas. Sorry I wasn't very helpful.
Good luck,
Kate
