Package: dolphin Version: 4.14.2-1 I am using Debian unstable (sid), kernel 3.14.15-2 (2014-08-09) x86_64.
I reported this bug upstream ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339866 ) but was told to report downstream instead as KDE maintainers considered it a packaging problem. As an aside, I wonder why dolphin has to depend on baloo now in Debian. The original bug report is as follows. ====================================== When I try searching in Dolphin, it always displays a red warning bar showing "Invalid protocol" , and no search is ever performed. Console output: dolphin(7601): couldn't create slave: "Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'baloosearch'. " After I installed "ballo", "baloo4" and "baloo-utils", the red warning bar (as well as the console output above) was gone but Dophin still couldn't find anything (status bar showing "0 Folders, 0 Files"), no matter what I input as search keyword. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Dolphin 2. Press CTRL+F 3. Input some characters as search keyword Actual Results: A red warning bar showing "Invalid protocol" pops up below the search bar. Expected Results: Dolphin finds folders/files whose names contain the search keyword
