Probably this is a red-herring, but why would an application (or
Trinity?) be trying to write a file into /etc/? (I tried making that
file world-writable, but I get the same error.)
Hi Leslie,
My /etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp owned by root:root, mode 644, and
last updated June 22nd. I don't know why it was updated then - I can't
find any TDE packages that were installed or upgraded about that time.
Package libtqt3-mt-data is listed as owner of /etc/tqt3/qtrc but I
cannot find an official owner of /etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp .
I think we need to see if the actual TDE devs can shed some light.
You can make /etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp writeble for evryone and try
again. IMO that's not the cause of the problem, gtk2 tqt plugin crashed for
certain application (e.g. franz lisp), removing it made things wrk again.
other question is: are the gtk2 libraries installed correctly? what's in
~/.xsesson-errors?
Yes, as I said, that's probably a red-herring. It does explain why the
syncRepositories() appears in the trace (see Mike's first response).
I have submitted an extract of this thread to the OpenOffice mailing list; so
far there has been no response.
