Bug 29516 – Ksensors 0.7 crashes at startup with KDE 3.1.x

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Arndt Wills 2003-09-24 07:35:37 UTC]

I'm using Gentoo for a while now an thought I should give back a bit ;-)  
If you start ksensors it would crash immediately, you can start it with the  
--nodock option, but this is a poor workaround. This problem was anoying  
me quite a long time, but I found a solution out there in the internet and  
modified the ebuild with this knowledge.  
All you have to do is put the patch in the ksensors/files dir and the ebuild  
to ksensors. It's my first ebuild, I hope I made it somewhat right ;-)  
 
(I posted this ebuild a week ago, but somehow the bug-report disappeared, including 
my account at bugs.gentoo.org...strange) 

Reproducible: Always

Yeah, we lost some bug reports due to a some hardware problems.

Anyway, I committed this to portage (slightly modified your ebuild).

Thanks!
