Public bug reported:

I suspect this has to do with libqt4-dbus, which was just upgraded this
evening.

I'm running Kubutu Oneiric, with all of the latest packages.  I
currently have 4:4.7.3-4ubuntu5 installed.

What I expected:  After entering my password to the KDM greeter, KDE would start up.
What happns:  After entering my password, I get a box saying "Could not start D-bus, can you call qdbus?", with an "ok" button, and upon clicking ok, I'm sent back to the greeter.

Trying to launch qdbus from the command line gives the error that qdbus
is not currently installed, but that I should install libqt4-dbus,
however, trying to install libqt4-dbus from the command line (sudo apt-
get install libqt4-dbus) gives the message that it is already the newest
version.

I've tried the trick of moving the .kde to .kde_old, but that doesn't help.
I've tried dpkg-reconfigure libqt4-dbus

Neither helps.  I suspect something (eg, qdbus) was left out of
libqt4-dbus.
