We certainly need desktop:// and remote:// ourselves and we can't have a dependency on applications and that's just the same as the current problem but in reverse. I think you're right that they could go in frameworks. I don't think it wouldn't bring any new dependencies and it already has a few ioslaves The other option is we make Dolphin check for the KIO existing before adding it to placesmodel. David
