Description Dave Richards 2012-06-11 07:28:56 UTC
In testing 3.6 alpha on 64bit, File >> Wizards >> Address Data Source does not bring up the expected UI.  Retested on 3.5 where it works fine.  Testing from the command line and no errors are reported; it just never opens.

Looks like my build was created on June 4th, last available that I can find.
Comment 1 Dave Richards 2012-06-12 06:04:10 UTC
Broken in Beta too.
Comment 2 Michael Meeks 2012-06-25 09:55:57 UTC
possible duplicate of bug#51115 - worth trying a daily build of master tomorrow perhaps (?)
Comment 3 Michael Stahl (allotropia) 2012-06-25 09:59:00 UTC
doesn't look like it has anything to do with bug 51115, which
only affects Impress/Draw extensions on Windows.
Comment 4 Michael Stahl (allotropia) 2012-06-26 04:25:15 UTC
works for me on all my self-built 3-6 Linux branch builds;
Caolan, do you have any idea what the usual reason is
why this address book stuff would break?
Comment 5 Caolán McNamara 2012-06-26 05:14:35 UTC
with catch throw and break dlopen on the release build it appears that the offender is libkab1lo.so, i.e. the KDE address book support
Comment 6 Caolán McNamara 2012-06-26 05:29:29 UTC
built against kde3 which don't have, so driver is "available" but can't be loaded. I can simulate it in a debugging version by e.g. deleting one of the other providers
