Autokey stopped working after updates.

Hi sorry, yes Re-installed and then rebooted

[pinoc]

which DE is this: KDE, LXDE, XFCE,...?

Could you try to create a new user-account and see if it fails there as well?

[veronicathecow]

Hi Pinoc, KDE. Tried with new user, same result and error messages.

Tested on 64 bit and working here.

Got this on 1st start:

Hi JohnW, thanks for trying. The error message I am getting is different.
RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v9.0 to v9.1 but the PyKDE4.kdecore module requires API v8.1

[JohnW_57]

Also tested on 32 bit with the same results.

Curious.
Wish I had the time and brains to become a packager then i could perhaps re-compile and sort problems like this.

[JohnW_57]

This is what I get on my system.

Hi John, yup that's what I was getting for a few days before some update went and killed it. I got used to having the facility and then it was cruelly snatched from my grasp!
Such a useful little program.

Hi JohnW, thanks for trying. The error message I am getting is different.
RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v9.0 to v9.1 but the PyKDE4.kdecore module requires API v8.1

All I could suggest is to reinstall the following

pykde4                  (ver 4.9.5)

python-kde4          (ver 4.6.0)

kdelibs                  (ver 4.9.5)

I would do them one at a time and check the application after each.

[pinoc]

there is another potential cause for the failure: do you use PASS or a public mirror?

The reason I'm asking is that all latest packages are on PASS but some packages are not yet on the public mirrors and this could cause your error. 
-p.

[veronicathecow]

Hi Pinoc, I use a public mirror.
Just17, you have cracked it. I did a re-install of pykde4, started the app and it works fine now. Have also done a reboot and still fine.
Many thanks to you all for your help it is very much appreciated. 
Now put your tin hats on in case any more meteorites decide they want to visit planet earth this morning!
