Smells like bug #54436 to me...
Well, for whatever it's worth, the app doesn't even launch, and it occurs in both 1.0 and 1.0rc2. Filelight has always worked great on my Gentoo desktop, also.
Have you update kde from 3.4 to 3.5? While asking uncle google for a clue, I found this: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/gentoo-linux-help/60418-my-kde-totally-screwed.html and this: http://www.void.gr/kargig/blog/2005/02/25/kde-k3b-ksycoca-error-solving/ Maybe it will help you. Cheers, Przemek
Thank you for the advice, I read both of the links and tried what they suggested but to no avail. I'm running the latest stable version of kdelibs - 3.5.5-r(something). I've re-emerged it but still experience this problem. Could the "ERROR: No database available" be the problem? Perhaps filelight is missing a dependency, or depends on kdelibs being emerged a certain way?
The kbuildsycoca output is irrelevant. Install gdb and drkonqi an read http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml to provide usable information and reopen.
