You have been subscribed to a public bug: In KDE 4.11.1, kwin requires a double click to operate maximize/minimize with the task bar. It should require a single click.
Bug is unfortunate since users that simply click on items on the task bar see the desktop doing nothing and may think that the whole desktop environment is malfunctioning. This bug is already acknowledged by KDE developers (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324470). They realized that the regression slipped in just hours after the release of 4.11.1. A fix was committed just after. However, the fix will not be officially delivered by KDE before 4.11.2 is released. Currently the advice seems to be that distributions fix it downstream (http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=117331), since the patch is trivial and the bug is annoying. Opensuse has already updated its packages. Currently the bug is in the KDE packages delivered with the backports ppa for raring. It would be better to have it fixed before the packages go in saucy. Side note: Since the bug is already acknowledged upstream, please do not ask for apports-collect, it is completely unnecessary (and apport is currently buggy, so it usage is not nice). Also please be so kind to leave the bug as "confirmed" and do not switch it to "incomplete" just because there is no apports-collect data. 'Confirmed' means "Verified by someone other than the reporter", 'incomplete' means "Cannot be verified without the reporter providing more information". This bug has been verified by the KDE developers themselves, which is not the current reporter. Please, stick to the words. Marking as 'incomplete' only removes attention from a bug for which there are upstream fixes already. Unfortunately, this is recently constantly happening for kernel bugs acknowledged by kernel developers and is killing any desire to report ubuntu bugs spending time to find upstream references at all. Do not extend this practice to KDE bugs as well. ** Affects: kde-workspace (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: bot-comment -- Kwin regression slipped in KDE 4.11.1 - Taskbar minimize/maximize https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1222133 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kde-workspace in Ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
