Every KDE application launch results in segfault or error message. I can't start kdm or startkde, too. rc-config shows dbus is started. Both /usr/kde/4.1/share and and /usr/share/kde4 (directory belongs to phonon package) are world-readable. I've found that someone solved this by downgrading kdelibs to 4.1.2 from 4.1.2-r1, but this didn't work out.

I meant rc-status, not rc-config. kdeprefix flag is set.
i can confirm that (but i use 4.1.69 here from kde4-overlay).
Same error on fresh system (without overlays). I managed to make it work by unmerging uim. So maybe it should be reassigned to CJK team.
anyone still having this bug? if yes, can you still relate it to uim?
No, this was solved. scim/uim still had similiar problems last time I tried to use it, but not this one. I've switched to ibus.
Reopening to fix resolution
