Any errors when you launch kopete from the terminal ?
Comment 2 J David Eisenberg 2012-04-20 20:28:19 CEST 
This is fascinating:

First time I tried it, nothing came up at all:
david@localhost ~ $ kopete
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
kopete(3288)/kio (KDirWatch) KDirWatchPrivate::removeEntry: doesn't know "/home/david/.kde4/share/apps/kabc" 

OK, so maybe I need an absolute path name:
 
david@localhost ~ $ whereis kopete
kopete: /usr/bin/kopete
david@localhost ~ $ /usr/bin/kopete
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
david@localhost ~ $ 

I returned to the command line, but the Kopete window is still open.

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,

No, I'm not using Mageia at this time, sorry.
Comment 10 Marja Van Waes 2014-05-04 11:27:45 CEST 
No update on this bug since almost 2 years ago, so closing as OLD

Feel free to reopen if it is still valid for current, fully updated cauldron or Mga 3 or 4, and adjust the version + name of the src.rpm 
(that would be task-kde4-4.13.0-1.mga5.src.rpm right now)
