kded4 using 100% cpu after update. what reason?

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings;

I yumex updated all the kde stuffs earlier today, and restarted X.  kmail 
restarted, with a slightly more compact folder listing which is appreciated, 
now I don't have to scroll it to drag-n-drop spam into the spam folder.

Kmail only lasted about 2 minutes after the restart, silently disappearing 
without a crash notice.  On the restart, it seems stable now.
Heck I have NDI what its supposed to be doing, is it playing catchup after the 
update or??

So what is the new kded4 doing?

And should I reboot?

Thanks.

I'm also seeing kded4 using 100% CPU time after the recent updates. I
didn't notice any crashes or hangs of anything.

I rebooted right after the update, I haven't rebooted since noticing the
CPU usage.

Oh yeh ... I am running Fedora 9.

After a reboot kded4 is running fine.

On a very different machine, I had the same thing happen, switching from
runlevel 3 back to 5 (the machine is headless at the moment), it came back
up and kded4 is fine.
