[PyQt] pykde segmentation fault - debian etch

[Giacomo Lacava]

Hi,

I was trying to use the http kioslave from pykde (mainly to avoid
dealing with proxy config), but I keep getting a segfault.

The call is like this:

>> import kio, kdecore
>> kio.KIO.NetAccess.download(kdecore.KURL("http://www.google.com"),"/home/myuser/tempfile")

I also keep getting segfaults as soon as I try to instantiate a KApplication.

Since I didn't trust the packages shipped with Debian etch, I
downloaded and compiled the riverbank source (pykde 3.16.0). This is
the output of configure.py:

python configure.py -d /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages -v
/usr/local/share/sip

     PyKDE version 3.16.0

PyKDE modules to be built:

What am I doing wrong?

If it's not possible to use the kioslave, does anybody know how to
retrieve the proxy info from Konqueror in some other way, without
having to read the config files?

cheers
Giacomo
