I'm using version 4.3.0 of Ktorrent. After the last upgrade I'm unable to see downloadorder plugin. In fact the clicking the plugin view gives an empty window. http://wstaw.org/m/2013/01/04/plasma-desktopWBq622.png

How to enable a plugin? I also have the devel version running, I can't find from where to enable plugins.

which distribution?

you have 2 versions installed, regular and devel?

try reinstalling just the ktorrent and libktorrent packages, maybe installing multiple version messed something up

I am using archlinux. I have regular 4.3.0 version installed, I switched to trunk just to see if I could manually run the plugin or something. I'm sure the issue is not because of multiple versions, I do not have 2 versions installed. I also made following changes in .kde4/share/config/ktorrentrc but no luck.

Code: Select all

[InfoWidgetPlugin]
InfoWidgetPluginEnabled=true
-
+ [DownloadOrderPlugin]
+ DownloadOrderPluginEnabled=true
+


found a suggestion to logout then login on the Arch forums

try running: kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental

Ah! worked, thanks a lot!! btw I'm not very clear what kbuildsyscoca4 does, can you please explain?

it rebuilds the system cache which is called ksycoca

old, but I assume still relevant explanation http://conference2005.kde.org/slides/kd ... de_13.html

In this case it was likely that kbuildsycoca4 was run by KDE itself partway through the upgrade, which is why this plugin was missing but the others were present.

As a general rule, it is recommended to logout and back in to KDE again after performing any updates, upgrades or new application installations, as kbuildsycoca4 will be automatically run on login.
