Interesting. I've been running pan on kde for well over a decade now. Currently I'm running both kde-frameworks/plasma/apps and pan (built against gtk2) from live-git, updated weekly or so (with an update just finished but not yet rebooted or X/plasma restarted yet). If pan was crashing I'd be complaining loudly and git-bisecting and/or reverting the latest libs updates. It's not. Tho FWIW I don't build with gkr or similar. AFAIK there's a known problem with gtk2-based apps and at least recent gtk3 gnome-keyring. But I run very little gtk3-based and don't have gnome-keyring of any sort installed, thus my choice to build without it. And because I don't have it installed, while I remember reading about the problem somewhere, I don't remember the details, or even where I read it, tho it was probably either here or in the gentoo general or kde-overlay git logs. So it's certainly /possible/ to run a gtk2-based pan on kde, without the crashing mentioned in that bug. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
