I don't think there were changes to KDE recently.

I get it but as soon as I select a file and click on OK, I get:

fileSelectionChanged
kdefilepicker: symbol lookup error: kdefilepicker: undefined symbol: 
_ZN3KIO9NetAccess12mostLocalURLERK4KURLP7QWidget

while on a working one I get:

fileSelectionChanged
accept
quit

Sound something related to lines:

#if KDE_IS_VERSION(3,5,0)
                         KURL qLocalSelectedURL = KIO::NetAccess::mostLocalURL( 
selectedURL(), this );
#else
                         KURL qLocalSelectedURL( selectedURL() );
#endif
                         qSelectedURL = addExtension( qLocalSelectedURL.url() );

lemme check which KDE version I build under...

Ah, so the KDE filepicker is external and called trough a pipe,
while the Gnome and/or standard one is internal? I had never noticed this.

OK.

Bye.
