Hi, Am I the only one who's having this issue? It's kind of annoying and there's no response from the maintenance team: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=908420 <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=908420> Regards,

Thanks Good Day, I'm not a user of Kvirc myself, sticking to irssi. However, out of curiosity, I installed kvirc in a fully fledged KDE environment (package task-kde-desktop) to see if I could reproduce the problem. And I believe I've been able to pinpoint something. It would seem that there is a trap with the naming convention of the configuration *file* ~/.config/kvirc and the configuration *directory* called ~/.config/KVIrc. I've got both of these at the end of a clean install, and after the first pass of the wizard: ~/.config/KVIrc/ ~/.config/kvirc Currently, is your ~/.config/kvirc a file or a directory storing your configuration ? If that is a directory storing your configuration, what happens if you rename it as, say, ~/.config/KVIrc and try to load this one configuration directory instead? Kind Regards, -- Étienne Mollier <etienne.mollier@cgg.com>

Now trying different things I found the winning combination I think that solves the issue: 1. Rename "old" ~/.config/kvirc into ~/.config/KVIrc 2. Create ~/.config/kvirc file (file, not folder) as follows: $ ls -l ~/.config/kvirc -rw------- 1 luser luser 76 Nov 29 17:34 /home/luser/.config/kvirc $ cat ~/.config/kvirc [Main] LocalKvircDirectory=/home/luser/.config/KVIrc/ SourcesDate=538312962 The above solves the issue for me. The bug stands though as something really does not work right in the setup wizard. Thanks for your help.
