Bug # 205513 looks like a KTorrent-only version of this, but says it is the dupe...

Confirming this

I have Kubuntu 8.10 with KDE 4.1.2 and KTorrent 3.1.2, and was getting this whenever I double-clicked .torrent files. They opened file, but the message popup came up like this:

--- Sorry - Plasma workspace ----------------------------------
-
- KDEInit could not launch '/usr/bin/ktorrent'
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------

I resolved this by using a suggestion posted above:

In file /usr/share/applications/kde4/ktorrent.desktop

changed the line

"X-DBUS-StartupType=Unique"

to

"X-DBUS-StartupType=None"

Haven't had any other apps do this except ktorrent, but if any other do I will try the same thing.

Thanks!
