I've just emerged Kopete 0.8.0 (stable version from portage), I run it, it open the "Configure" window and when I click on the left menu items ("Appearence" or "Behavior") Kopete crash and open KDE bug report.

I don't know if it can help but if I click next, it doesn't crash but I can only register for a gadu-gadu account, the others don't appear. I've try with kernel 2.6.9 and 2.6.10 same problem (fresh install of gentoo from stage 2, system up to date). The problem appears in gnome and Kde. Thanks ;) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge kopete 2. # kopete 3. Click on any item from the left panel of the configure menu Actual Results: It simply crash. Expected Results: Don't crash ;) and let me go into submenu.

emerge -C kopete emerge kdenetwork
Okay, I think it may work, thank you carlo :) DEPEND=">=dev-libs/libxml2-2.4.8 >=dev-libs/libxslt-1.0.7 >=kde-base/kdenetwork-3.3.0 <kde-base/kdelibs-3.2" maybe ?
Problem not solved, it continue to crash. Very strange...
This tipically happens when trying to run kopete from kde-3.3 in a kde-3.2 session, or if there are stale files in /usr/lib (try 'ls /usr/lib/kde3/*kopete*') (see also bug 61136)
Yeah! A simple " rm /usr/lib/kde3/*kopete* " and kopete is now starting well. Thanks for your great help. Feel free to change the status to resolved :)
