Crash when on Settings/Preferences

What OS are you using? For what its worth, I see the same
thing with eric on 
kubuntu-8.04 running kde4. Detlev suggested that it might be
the oxygen icons 
that are making kde4 crash, but when I tried downgrading to
4.1.x I still got 
the same crash when forced into the configuration dialog.
This only happened 
with eric built from sources. I ended up installing eric
from kubuntu's 
package manager, and that did not fail during the
configuration step.

I was using Ubuntu 8.04 but last night (for other reasons) I
installed Vista
again on my machine, so, I do not have this problem any
more.

But thanks anyway!

I think this problem was related to some cruft in kubuntu. I
had been getting 
some errors about dependency issues in kde4. I removed a
bunch of kde4 
packages, ran apt-get autoremove, reinstalled
kubuntu-kde4-desktop, and now I 
am able to enter the configurations dialog.

I still have the issue where if I select to use kde4 dialogs
in eric 
preferences, the text in the menubars disappears. This was
reportedly a 
problem with pykde4 and the oxygen theme, and I read
somewhere that it was 
fixed in pykde-4.0.2-2. I installed pykde-4.0.3 with
kubuntu's package 
manager, and the problem persists. Fortunately, it is not
critical, I can 
simply disable the kde4 dialogs. But if anyone has been able
to get this 
option to work, would you please provide some details?

Thanks,
Darren

Hi,

beginning of April Simon Edwards gave the following tip in
the PyQt mailing 
list.

Put the following lines in your PyKDE4/__init__.py 
file in your Python installation's site-packages directory.
(typically 
/lib/python2.5/site-packages/PyKDE4/__init__.py).

     import sys,DLFCN
     sys.setdlopenflags(DLFCN.RTLD_NOW|DLFCN.RTLD_GLOBAL)

I did this and the dialogs work even with the Oxygen style.

Regards,
Detlev
