I cannot confirm this bug. I'm using Gentoo Linux, 6.6.13 kernel, Plasma
5.27.10, Frameworks 5.113.0, Qt 5.15.12 and X11. No problems with selecting
text in Khelpcenter with the mouse . I can't get the keyboard to select text ,
though (Shift + -->).

I've had similar problems with kdesrc-build in the recent past. I suggest you
delete the entire "~/kde/build" directory, Ilias, and try again. Sometimes
extraneous junk left over from a previous build can cause "CMake" to hiccup,
apparently. All the stuff you need to run previously compiled programs is in
the "~/kde/usr" directory ... the "build" directory is just a bunch of
temporary / intermediate files.

[Books] [Bug 456375] Invalid link to download the book

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=456375

--- Comment #9 from David C. Bryant  ---
I made a couple of commits in gitlab. "kdesrc-build kf5book" now creates a .pdf
file, and an html file. The "epub" still dies:

gmake[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/epubbook.dir/build.make:85:
KDE-Frameworks-Cookbook.epub] Error 6
gmake[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:139: CMakeFiles/epubbook.dir/all] Error 2
gmake[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs
[ 86%] Built target htmlbook
[ 97%] Built target pdfbook

I can't figure that problem out. I checked the command syntax on line 85 of
"build.make", and it looks OK to me. Albert, is it OK to load the .pdf file
directly into the community wiki? Or is there some sort of auxiliary storage
area where it ought to reside?

[Books] [Bug 456375] Invalid link to download the book

2022-07-10 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=456375

--- Comment #8 from David C. Bryant  ---
I have been digging into the CMAKE files for project kf5book
(https://invent.kde.org/documentation/kf5book). I finally got the .pdf file to
generate using "kdesrc-build kf5book". I had to do several things to get it to
go.

-- I had to install "pandocs" and also "snippetextractor". "pandocs" is part of
my distro (Gentoo), so that was easy. "snippetextractor" is sort of obscure, so
I had to clone the source for snippetextractor, after which "qmake -o Makefile
snippetextractor.pro && make" generated the object program. I then moved the
object program from the build directory into my PATH, so it woud be usable.

-- I had to change a command line in the CMakeLists.txt file:

add_custom_command(OUTPUT KDE-Frameworks-Cookbook.pdf
COMMAND ${PANDOC} --toc --number-sections ${files} -o
KDE-Frameworks-Cookbook.pdf
--template=${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/pdf-template.tex
--chapters
DEPENDS ${files} pdf-template.tex
)

The "pandocs" program no longer supports  a "--chapters" option. It works OK if
"--chapters" is changed to "--top-level-division=chapter".

-- I had to add some customization to the "pdf-template.tex" file from the
repo.
(add after line 131)
\providecommand{\tightlist}{%
  \setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}\setlength{\parskip}{0pt}}

because "pandocs" throws a "\tightlist" command into every itemized list it
generates, and \tightlist is not a standard LaTeX function.

-- With these changes, kdesrc-build can create an html file, and a pdf file.
The "epub" command is still not working correctly. Maybe I can get that fixed
tomorrow.

After a week of hard work, I have created a reasonable facsimile of the book.
You can access it on my website: https://davidcbryant.net/kf5book/kf5book.pdf.

I converted the individual chapters (in .md format) and used a free on-line
service to convert the markdown to TeX / LaTeX. Then I used Kile to string the
whole thing  together, and compiled a .pdf file that way. I put the chapters in
alphabetical order, except for the chapter about writing a new frameworks app,
which I placed last.

There were a lot of broken hyperlinks. Most of those have been fixed, but I
still need to proofread the whole thing one more time.

[kmail2] [Bug 455423] New: Forced to reboot on dbus error.

2022-06-16 Thread David C. Bryant

Screenshot of error message.

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Compose an email message
2. Choose "send"

OBSERVED RESULT
Message is moved to outbox folder, and hangs up there. Attempts to send using
"send queued messages" always fail. The only way I know of to fix it is to
reboot the system. When I do reboot, an error message is displayed: 
E-mail Sending Failed
Failed to get D-Bus interface of mailfilteragent. 

This is an intermittent error. I suppose one in a thousand (0.1%) of the
messages I send fail this way. A screenshot of the error message is attached.

EXPECTED RESULT
The KMail composer should be able to connect with mailfilteragent, and thence
with my email provider via the internet.  This happens about 99.9% of the time.
And if there is an error with D-Bus, I should be able to see the notification
without rebooting the whole system.

[frameworks-kdoctools] [Bug 443364] Meinproc5 issues multiple "I/O error" messages

--- Comment #3 from David C. Bryant  ---
OK, I dug into this one some more. Here's what's going on.

1. Because of other problems (with Dolphin / Konqueror --
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443259),  I devised a workaround that
involved the creation of a second user account. I set up the working directory
so that both User1 and User2 have read/write permissions.

2. This bug can be reproduced as follows: 
-- Set up a second user account.
-- Create a working directory that allows any user to have read/write access
(use chmod, or Dolphin).
-- Clone a /docs directory into that working directory. The app doesn't matter,
but I've been working on KOrganizer.
-- Log in as User1 and run meinproc5 index.docbook in the working directory.
-- Log out, then log in as User2. Run meinproc5 index.docbook against the
working directory again. You will get the I/O errors.

I can work around this. And it only happens in the context of two users, both
with r/w access to the directory in which the index.docbook file resides. If
the existing .html files were created by the user who is currently logged in,
meinproc5 overwrites the .html files with nary a whimper. But if the existing
.html files were created by the other user, meinproc5 will not overwrite them,
even though the file permissions say it's OK to do so.

I suspect the existing code implicitly assumes that only one user will ever be
running meinproc5 in a particular working directory. The error message that is
issued ("QIODevice::write (QFile, "index.html"): device not open") is not very
informative. If there must be an error message in this context, it really ought
to say something about file ownership. Better yet, meinproc5 should recognize
that it has write access in the working directory, and overwrite the old files.

[khelpcenter] [Bug 443259] Help Center tells me to file a bug report

2021-10-31 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443259

--- Comment #6 from David C. Bryant  ---
The problem with khelpcenter is apparently buried somewhere in "kio". For
instance, I used to be able to open html files in Konqueror. Now (in my primary
user account) Konqueror hands every html file I open from my hard disk to Kate.
I can still view html files that are downloaded from the internet -- Konqueror
renders them just fine. But if I try to open an html file from my hard disk,
I'm left looking at the raw html code, rendered as text. 

I managed to get around this by creating a new user account. When logged in to
the new account, Konqueror works correctly. So I suspect a problem with
configuration files, somewhere. But I have no idea which ones.

I booted into Manjaro again. The terminal command

man btrfs-replace

works correctly (90 lines). The same page accessed with khelpcenter throws an
error message: "The process for the man protocol died unexpectedly." Just 16
lines from the man page are displayed. So it looks like a program bug, to me.
BTW, I also tried browsing the man pages with khelpcenter. Most of them work
fine. This one (btrfs-replace) doesn't.

I booted into Manjaro a few minutes ago, and I was able to reporduce this bug.
The error message said "Tne man pages protocol died unexpectedly", or something
similar. Only a portion of the relevant man page was displayed. I'll play
around with it as time permits. It could be a problem with the man page itself.

No, it's nt consistent. It's one of those very inconvenient "intermittent"
errors.

Just so you konow, Luigi, I recompiled the "kdoctools" package after this had
happened a couple of times. After that, the problem recurred once. And then
"meinproc5" started working correctly again. I have run the program nine times
(without errors) since I first filed this bug report. If the problem recurs,
I'll let you know. For now I consider it resolved.

[frameworks-kdoctools] [Bug 443364] New: Meinproc5 issues multiple "I/O error" messages

2021-10-05 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443364

Bug ID: 443364
   Summary: Meinproc5 issues multiple "I/O error" messages
   Product: frameworks-kdoctools
   Version: 5.85.0
  Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: general
  Assignee: kde-doc-engl...@kde.org
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Program "meinproc5" sometimes terminates with a lot of strange I/O errors.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a terminal window and navigate to a documentation directory
2. Enter this command: meinproc5 index.docbook

OBSERVED RESULT
Here is some terminal output from 5 minutes ago.

davidb@localhost $ meinproc5 index.docbook
QIODevice::write (QFile, "index.html"): device not open
QIODevice::write (QFile, "introduction.html"): device not open

QIODevice::write (QFile, "faq.html"): device not open
QIODevice::write (QFile, "credits.html"): device not open
QIODevice::write (QFile, "glossary.html"): device not open

EXPECTED RESULT
I expect meinproc5 to run without errors. In this instance, it produced no html
output at all; just a lot of error messages.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have learned that if I delete all the html output from a previous invocation
of "meinproc5" from my working directory, the program wil (usually) run OK. But
"meinproc5" never used to do this. It would delete the old html files
automatically / overwrite them without prompting. I can work around this bug.
But it's annoying, and wastes my time.

--- Comment #5 from David C. Bryant  ---
OK, I figured out how to patch my way around it. I looked inside a couple of
"index.cache.bz2" files, and realized that they're just all the little html
files generated by meinproc5, rolled up into one big html file. So I tried
renaming "index.html" to be "index.cache", and sure enough, khelpcenter opens
the renamed file without a whimper. I can do that with any of the "chunks"
generated by meinproc5. Can't follow links to other "pages" the way I used to,
though.

I still maintain that this is a bug no matter what others may believe. An
application program ought not give a diddly do damn what the file name
extension associated with a particular file is, or means. It ought to do what I
tell it to do (e.g., open this file) and not try to second-guess my command. If
it turns out that the program can't handle the file format, it ought to
complain -- after it has tried to process the file. But it really ought not
care about the file name, or the filename extension, and refuse to function on
account of an irrelevant detail (like what I decided to call this particular
file).

Bug ID: 443259
   Summary: Help Center tells me to file a bug report
   Product: khelpcenter
   Version: 5.7.6.21043
  Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal

 Component: general
  Assignee: kde-doc-engl...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When I try to open an html file prepared by meinproc5 with khelpcenter, it
displays an error message telling me to file a bug report.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter a terminal command: khelpcenter ~/path/index.html (index.html created
from index.docbook)
2. An error message is displayed. See attachment.

OBSERVED RESULT
I get an error.

EXPECTED RESULT
I should say the table of contents from the docbook I'm working with.

macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This was working OK up until two or three days ago. And it still works OK on
some platforms. I currently have five distros installed: Gentoo (updated
daily), Artix Linux, Manjaro, openSUSE Tumbleweed. and openSUSE LEAP 15.3. This
problem occurs with Gentoo, Artix, and Tumbleweed. Manjaro and LEAP 15.3 still
work OK. I suspect a "Qt" module is to blame, because all three of the failing
distros recently rolled some new Qt packages.

[kmail2] [Bug 439958] X-Face can break cryptographic signatures

2021-09-27 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=439958

--- Comment #14 from David C. Bryant  ---
(In reply to Sandro Knauß from comment #13)
> I can confirm it [snip ...]
> 
> @David: can you check, if you get proper signatures, if you disable the
> picture (X-Face)? (Picture tab of the Identity).

Yes, Sandro, signatures work fine with X-Face disabled. See the screenshot I'm
adding as an attachment to this bug report today. I am using the same picture
as was in the X-Face header as my gravatar (see discussion below). So the
message appears the same (to me) both with and without embedded X-Face headers
(except that X-Face breaks the crypto signature). 

A friend referred me to this web page:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-autocrypt-lamps-protected-headers-02
and raised the question "should the X-Face header be a protected header?" I'm
not real sure of the answer. Personally, I don't care if somebody views the
wrong picture in a signed message I send. Integrity of the text message is all
I really care about. Others might feel differently, though.

One other thing. The field used to display the "X-Face" picture is also used to
display "gravatars" kept on file in KAddressbook. So people can (in effect)
attach pictures to their messages without using "X-Face" (with the recipient's
assistance). One can even configure KMail itself to search for gravatars on the
internet (Configure KMail --> Plugins --> Gravatar Config). So "X-Face" is
becoming redundant. Just a thought.

I installed Artix Linux on July 25. At first the signati=ures worked OK in
KMail. Yesterday the signature algorithm stopped working. See my post in the
Artix forum https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,2892.0.html for
additional details. KMail is version 5.17.3. Here are details from an Artix
mirror.

kmail-21.04.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst  08-Jul-2021 19:04
6389027

Looks very much like an ArchLinux mirror:

kmail-21.04.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst  2021-07-08 07:21  6.1M

I have attached screenshots of two emails composed in Artix on July 28th, one
in the morning (good signature) and one in the afternoon (bad signature).

SUMMARY
KMail composer creates invalid crypto signature.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Compose a new message, select "Sign Message" but not "Encrypt Message"
2. Send the message, or save it as a draft.

OBSERVED RESULT
Signature invalid. See attachments.

EXPECTED RESULT
The signature should be valid.

Linux/KDE Plasma:

KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.82.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I first saw this bug in November, 2020. I asked about in in gitlab, and was
assured it had been fixed. But it keeps popping up all over the place. I have
several different Linux platforms installed on my hard drive. Here's a list.

openSUSE LEAP 15.3 (KMail 5.14.2) -- Signature works correctly.
openSUSE Tumbleweed (KMail 5.17.3?) -- Signature is broken.
KDE Neon 5.22.3 (KMail 5.17.3) -- Signature is broken.
Manjaro (Plasma 5.22.3, Frameworks 5.84.0, KMail 5.17.3) -- Signature works OK.

So on the more or less "current" distros, Manjaro Linux works correctly. I have
also tested this pretty extensively using "kdesrc-build" and KDE sources. It
works right with Manjaro Linux, but fails on Gentoo / Neon / Tumbleweeed
(openSUSE LEAP won't play nice with kdesrc-build; Frameworks are too old).

[kmail2] [Bug 340014] kMail crashes when opening a new main window if the original (first) main window has been closed

 CC||davidbry...@gvtc.com

--- Comment #13 from David C. Bryant  ---
I think this problem has been fixed. I'm using Gentoo Packages, KMail 5.16.3,
Plasma 5.21.5, Frameworks %.82.0, Qt 5.15.2.

The menu item "File --> New --> Main Widow" has been removed. Simply starting
KMail, then saying "kmail" in a terminal window won't fire up a second instance
of the program. But "d-bus-launch kmail" will start a second (and a third)
instance of the program.

I fiddled around with this for a bit, and could not get any of the instances of
KMail to crash. I could navigate to different folders / messages. I ran "qps"
(traces process ids, like a GUI version of "top"). I saw multiple instances of
the akonadi server running, which might eventually cause a problem. Memory
usage was pretty high. Killing the extra instances of kmail left "phantom"
instances of akonadi hanging around ... I'm too lazy to try killing them one by
one, so will probably just reboot to clean up the process tree..

The only really odd thing I noticed is that the system tray icon was not
recreated when I opened a second main KMail window. And if I "quit" from the
system tray, the second instance of KMail keeps on running.

Does anybody have any objection to marking this bug "resolved"?

I also verified that this is a bug. And it doesn't have to be a filter that
decrypts the message. I used "Message --> Copy Decrypted to --> Recent
Folders". The copied (and decryptd) message had the same problem ... the
message structure has been gaarbled, somehow.

In Gentoo packages updated today, installation of kwin-5.21.5 resolved this

[kwin] [Bug 438090] New: Segmentation Fault on Logout

2021-06-04 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438090

Bug ID: 438090
   Summary: Segmentation Fault on Logout
   Product: kwin
   Version: 5.20.5
  Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: core
  Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
SDDM / Login works OK when system first boots up. If I log out, I can't log in
again. Much discussion in Gentoo forums. See
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1136583.html and also
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1135770.html.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot the system and log in.
2. Log out.
3. Segmentation fault in kwin; can't log in again.

OBSERVED RESULT
I can't log into my Plasma session unless I restart sddm.

EXPECTED RESULT
I should be able to log out, then log back in again. It worked until a couple
of days ago. I suspect "qtcore" and/or "qtgui", which were recently upgraded in
Gentoo.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.80.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm reporting this as a bug in Plasma, with the X11 windowing system. But it
also appears to be killing the Wayland windiwing system. I usually don't use
Wayland, but it used to work, and now it doesn't. I can't even get a decent
error message out of Wayland. I also have XFCE configured ... amaxingly enough,
I was able to get some screenshots of Drkonqui after kwin had crashed by
logging in to XFCE and using those tools. Screenshots are attached.

Looking at my screenshots again, it's only the "USe Default Aggregation" check
box that doesn't work. I have also played with the "Theme" check box. The same
thing happens there. I cannot customize either "Aggregation" or "Theme". The
other options uncer "View" seem to be OK.

Folder Properties Dialog with changes made.

SUMMARY
Folder Properties Dialog (View tab) doesn't preserve the changes I make.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the "Folder Properties" dialog.
2. Change something, like "Show Column", or "Use Default Aggregation".
3. Close the dialog, then open it again.

OBSERVED RESULT
KMail ignores the changes Ihave made. The defaults have been reimposed.

EXPECTED RESULT
The changed values should have been applied, and should still be there.

Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.80.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This used to work correctly. I suspect the recent upgrade to 5.16.3 from 5.16.2
broke something. I'm using Gentoo packages, and compiling KMail from source.
See attached screenshorts, showing first the changes I made, and then that
KMail forgot them immediately.

[Akonadi] [Bug 436550] Sporadic error when moving messages to trash.

2021-05-03 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436550

--- Comment #3 from David C. Bryant  ---
I guess I have a work around. I copied all the contents of
./local/share/local-mail/inbox to a new location. Then I closed KMail, stopped
Akonadi, and deleted all the messages in ./local/share/local-mail/inbox. When I
restarted KMail and ran "akonadictl fsck" I saw that 236 "dirty" items had been
eliminated. Here is some terminal output.

david@localhost ~ $ akonadictl stop
david@localhost ~ $ akonadictl fsck 2>&1|grep ^Found
Found 13 external files.
Found 13 external parts.
Found no unreferenced external files.
Found 0 parts to be moved to external files
Found 0 parts to be moved to database
Found 5 collections without RID.
Found 0 items without RID.
Found 2765 dirty items.

Notice the last line ... that used to say 3,001. 3,001 - 2,765 = 236. So there
were 236 "dirty" items in my inbox folder.

I killed KMail again, then stopped akonadi and copied the messages from the
backup copy back where they had come from. I then restarted KMail, and all the
inbox messages re-appeared. And when I reran akonadictl fsck, things were stil
(partially) copacetic:

david@localhost ~ $ akonadictl fsck 2>&1|grep ^Found
Found 398 external files.
Found 398 external parts.
Found no unreferenced external files.
Found 0 parts to be moved to external files
Found 0 parts to be moved to database
Found 5 collections without RID.
Found 0 items without RID.
Found 2765 dirty items.

So I guess I can cure my KMail error messages by repeating this procedure for
all the destinations in my folder tree. But I'd like to understand what created
the "dirty" items in the first place. And it would also be nice to have a less
labor-intensive method to correct this problem if and when it does arise.

(I'm not real hot with "C++". But I used to write database driver software in
assembly language on IBM mainframes. It's pretty clear to me that a bunch of
the pointers in Akonadi's relational database were corrupted somehow, leading
to a lot of "dirty" items. When I removed all the data from one -- well,
actually, two -- folders, a whole slew of pointers were cleared from the
relational database. Then, when I put the data back and restarted Akonadi, the
previously corrupted pointers were rebuilt correctly. So now a bunch of "dirty"
items are gone. If some clever C++ programmer could figure out how to make
Akonadi reconstruct all its relational database pointers without actually
moving a lot of data around, he could at least construct a recovery tool that
would probably be useful. Reading a bunch of forum posts, it's obvious a lot of
people are unhappy with Akonadi.)

[Akonadi] [Bug 436550] Sporadic error when moving messages to trash.

2021-05-03 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436550

--- Comment #1 from David C. Bryant  ---
I've done some more poking around. The messages that I can't access are
asociated with "dirty" items reported by akonadictl fsck. Here's some terminal
output.

david@localhost ~ $ akonadictl fsck 2>&1|grep ^Found
Found 13 external files.
Found 13 external parts.
Found no unreferenced external files.
Found 0 parts to be moved to external files
Found 0 parts to be moved to database
Found 5 collections without RID.
Found 0 items without RID.
Found 3001 dirty items.

I've posted inquiries in the KDE forum and in some chat rooms. I'll report back
here if I get a response. I did do some spot checking, and the "dirty" items
are definitely causing the problem. Every message that can't be accessed is on
the list of "dirty" items. 

For about a year, akonadictl routinely reported 0 dirty items. Then, a couple
of weeks ago, there were 3,003 of them. I have no idea how or why that
happened. I think I can probably fix it by backing up all my emails and
clearing all the data files out of .local/share/local-mail, then loading all
the data back in there. But that would be a lot of work. I'm hopeful there's an
easier way to clean the dirt out of Akonadi.

[Akonadi] [Bug 436550] New: Sporadic error when moving messages to trash.

2021-05-03 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436550

Bug ID: 436550
   Summary: Sporadic error when moving messages to trash.
   Product: Akonadi
   Version: 5.16.3
  Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: Maildir Resource

Created attachment 138122
  --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=138122=edit
Terminal output when I run "akonadictl fsck"

SUMMARY
Occasionally when I attempt to move a message to trash, the operation fails
with an error message about "resource conflict". The message then becomes
inaccessible in KMail, although it's still on the hard disk.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a message in the message list
2. Click on "Move to trash"
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
org.kde.pim.akonadiserver: Handler exception when handling command FetchItems
on connection MessageViewer-94667889766560 (0x557dcf696430) : Unable to fetch
item from backend (collection -1) : Unable to retrieve item from resource:
[LRCONFLICT] Resource akonadi_maildir_resource_0 tries to modify item 101543
(1618061094817.R217.localhost:2,S) (in collection 11) with dirty payload,
aborting STORE.
org.kde.pim.akonadiserver: Error while handling command ModifyItems on

(1618061094817.R217.localhost:2,S) (in collection 11) with dirty payload,

EXPECTED RESULT
KMail / Akonadi should move the message to Trash

Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.80.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have reported tis to the Gentoo developers. But I suspect it's really a KDE
buug, because they're not making any changes to Akonadi / KMail, just
repackaging it for "Portage".

Also, when I run "akonadictl fsck" I get a long list of "dirty" items. That
output is attached. I would clean up the "dirty" items, if only I knew how to
do that.

[kmail2] [Bug 435776] Some images in HTML display are washed out

2021-04-15 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435776

--- Comment #4 from David C. Bryant  ---
Let me know if you want more examples. I'll do some goofing around with other
image creation programs (Spectacle, Firefox "screenshot" tool, etc.) if you
think that might be helpful. This doesn't happen very often, and only seems to
occur when I create a screenshot myself. (In this instance, I uploaded an image
to the groups.io web site, and sent the email message from the web site.)
Thanks!

Bug ID: 435776
   Summary: Some images in HTML display are washed out
   Product: kmail2
   Version: 5.16.3
  Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: wishlist
  Priority: NOR
 Component: UI
  Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Most images embedded in HTML messages appear just fine. But occasionally a
screenshot appears to be totally overexposed / washed out when the underlying
image file looks perfectly fine.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Take a screenshot of something in your browser (I used Flameshot).
2. Embed the picture in an email message.
3. Send it to yourself, then look at it.

OBSERVED RESULT
Sometimes the image looks all washed out, even when the original image looks
good.


EXPECTED RESULT
I expect all the embedded images in an HTML-encoded message to be displayed
sharply and clearly.

Bug ID: 435431
   Summary: Edit menu (Variables submenu) doesn't work as
advertised
   Product: kmail2
   Version: 5.16.3
  Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: minor
  Priority: NOR
 Component: composer
  Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
There are a few glitches in the Edit --> Variables > menu items. In particular,
the "First Name" option extracts Last Name, not First Name.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the Composer, fill in "To:" and "CC:" fields ("From:" is pre-filled).
2. Position the cursor somewhere in the main Composer window.
3. Select menu item Edit --> Variable > To > To Field First Name (or ... CC >
CC 
Field First Name, or ... From > From Field First Name).


OBSERVED RESULT
The selected menu item inserts the person's last name.


EXPECTED RESULT
I expected this function to insert the person's first name, as advertised.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Yes!
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.77.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I ran across this bug while working on the documentation update project. There
are a couple of other problems with "Variables >" ... check out "Edit -->
Variables > Attachments > Names and Sizes" (appends the literal value "AND
SIZES" to the list of attachments' names ... I expected to see the size of each
attachment, sort of the way sizes are displayed in the list of attachments
underneath the main Composer window) and also try "Edit --> Variables >
Date/Time > Time" (appends the literal value "LONG" to hh:mm:ss AM/PM, where I
expected to see, e.g., "GMT" or "UTC" or "CDT").

See the attached screenshot, where I tried each of the four options (Address,
Last Name, First Name, Name) for "To >", "From  >", and "CC >", respectively.
First Name and Last Name are stored as separate fields in KAddressBook, and
"Name" includes both a person's first and last names, so these functions work
almost right ... only the "First Name" option is misbehaving.

Maybe this isn't really a bug. There's a drop-down box in the configuration
dialog for "DKIM Checker" labeled "Save Record Key". The default value is
"Nothing". If I change that to "Save", or "Save and Compare", DKIM checker
seems to work correctly. I'll add that little hint to the documentation (which
didn't exist until recently), and close this bug report.

[kmail2] [Bug 434636] New: Problem with initialization of DKIM "plugin"

2021-03-19 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434636

Bug ID: 434636
   Summary: Problem with initialization of DKIM "plugin"
   Product: kmail2
   Version: 5.16.2
  Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: config dialog
  Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Configure KMail --> Plugins --> DKIM Checker works OK until KMail is restarted.
Then it breaks.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Configure KMail --> Plugins --> DKIM Checker Configuration dialog
(click the button).
2. Make sure "Enable DKIM Support" is *not* checked; close dialog, exit KMail.
3. Restart KMail, then check the "Enable DKIM Support" option.
4. DKIM checking starts working as advertised, generally reporting either "DKIM
valid" or "DKIM not signed" (when DKIM header is not present).
5. Exit KMail and restart the program.
6. Now DKIM checking is broken: every formerly valid signature is now reported
to be invalid.

OBSERVED RESULT
DKIM Checker only works until KMail is restarted. Then it fails. The only
workaround I have found is to change the configuration file ("Not Enabled"),
shut KMail down, then restart KMail and change the configuration file again
("Enabled").

EXPECTED RESULT
If the DKIM Checker is turned on, it should still function correctly when KMail
is stopped and re-started. Something is not being initialized correctly when
KMail starts up. Reconfiguring the DKIM Checker forces proper initialization
once and once only.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.77.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This may be related, indirectly, to bug #204712. I hadn't even noticed this
feature of KMail until recently, when I added new documentation for the
"Plugins" configuration page. I discovered the bug when I was experimenting
with DKIM Checker so I could write some documentation for this feature.

OK. I'll try to work on it, as time permits. I'm pretty busy with other stuff 
right now (I volunteer to help elderly people who don't much like computers 
file their income tax returns, and the season is upon us). And I'm in the 
middle of rewriting the KMail documentation. But it might not be hard to do, 
if I just have to copy some xml code from one index.docbook file and paste it 
into another one. And maybe copy some .png files as well. I'll try to get to

Didn't Dolphin and Konqueror spring from the same root? I remember using
Konqueror ca 2002 or 2003. It seems to me Dolphin started life as Konqueror
without all thehttp & ftp bells and whistles, around 2010, or o. There was
smething called Nautilus along the way, as well. I ws on openSUSE back then.
But it was KDE allthe way for me.

Operating System: Linux 5.4.80-gentoo-x86_64 x86_64
Windowing system: X11
Distribution: Gentoo/Linux

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed: I do daily backups of my
important data files using rsync. Yesterday I did a large amount of archiving
email from the year 2020 (I keep about 3 GiB of emsil archives, in total).
After running the rsync script, I started Dolphin to look at the backed up copy
of the email archive, which had been recetnly reorganized. It worked fine at
first -- I drilled all the way down (tree view) through 4 levels of directories
to an actual list of files. The crash occuirred when I clicked the down arrow
to collapse the file list. No other application programs were running except
yakuake and the usual cadre of kde framework stuff.
I started dolphin again, repeated my previous sequence of actions, and boom! It
died the same way. The only difference I can see is that the "KDE Crash
Handler" was running the second time it crashed.
I should mention that i re-compiled a lot of kde-framework packages just two
days ago, on 11 January. Big package upgrade at Gentoo (I try to run emerge
--sync once a day). 60 packages were affected. Upgraded from 5.74 to 5.77. It
took 7.5 hours to compile those 60 packages (I maintain a complete set of
"portage" log files for all 1288 packages installed on my system). The day
before (10 January) I installed qt5.15.2 and a few additional packages
(firefox, libre-office) dependent on qt. 4.5 hours for that one, My poor CPUs
are getting tired.  :-)

The crash can be reproduced every time.

Just a suggestion. All the KDE application documentation is available for
viewing online. For English, start here:

https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/

Browse the various subdirectories for the application you wish to consult. For
instance, "kmail2" is in the "pim" subdirectory:

https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/pim/kmail2/

You can open those HTML pages in Firefox, or Chromium, or some other browser
with tabbing support, and use just as many tabs as your little heart desires.

No. It was apparently related to an old version of KWrite, or maybe Klipper.

I finally got brave enough to build Gentoo Linux. Kate is now version 20.04.3,
Frameworks is 5.74.0, qt 5.15.1, and I haven't had this problem -- not even
once -- since I got Gentoo working (about four months ago). I guess we should
close this bug.

Bug ID: 428280
   Summary: Keyboard Shortcuts should be consistent with KDE
Fundamentals
   Product: kolourpaint
   Version: 20.04
  Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal

Screenshot of KolourPaint keyboard shortcuts, default settings

The "Fundamentals" handbook says one can toggle the Menu Bar on and off by
pressing Ctrl+M. This won't work in KolourPaint, because Ctrl+M has been
assigned as a local shortcut.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start KolourPaint
2. Press Ctrl+M

OBSERVED RESULT
Opens the "More Image Effects" dialog box.

EXPECTED RESULT
Toggle the Menu Bar on and off.

"why would one want to see no menubar ?"

Because the "Fundamentals" handbook says this always works, maybe?

Look at KHelpCenter, select "Fundamentals". In table of contents, select "The
Settings Menu" (help:/fundamentals/menus.html#menus.settings). Every KDE
application program is supposed to provide a facility for turning the menu bar
on and off. See screenshot.

This bug must only be showing up with certain packages. I just checked it in 
OpenSUSE (Leap 15.1), Debian 10, and KDE Neon 15.8.2 (base package is Ubuntu 
18.04). It worked fine in all three environments -- there was no garbled image.

I honestly doubt that the problem is in Kate itself. But I had to report it
somewhere if I wanted to report it at all. Let me explain.

About a year ago I noticed a change in the way the "Clipboard" works.
Previously (on SUSE LEAP 42.3, and going all the way back to SUSE 9.0, starting
in 2003) I could select a block of text in just about any program whatsoever,
and it would not be copied to the "Clipboard" until I hit ^C, or ^X. When I
installed LEAP 15.0 (December, 2018) I noticed a change. Text was automatically
copied to the "Clipboard" as soon as it was highlighted (either by dragging the
mouse, or by holding Shift and striking --> on the keyboard). This was very
annoying for a while, because I had been in the habit, when surfing the web, of
selecting a URL somewhere (with the right-click context menu in Firefox -->
Copy Link Location) and then pasting it in the navigation bar of a Firefox tab
that was already open. The new behavior of the "Clipboard" made this procedure
more difficult, because when I selected the text I wanted to replace with the
copied URL, a new entry was made in the "Clipboard"'s stack of saved items,
effectively erasing the new data I was trying to copy. So I had to either open
the "Clipboard" from the system tray and move the data I wanted to copy back to
the top of the stack, or alter my old habits and erase the text I wanted to
replace (with backspace, or delete) instead of just selecting it and then
overwriting it with ^V. The new procedure wasn't any more work than the old
procedure, but old habits are hard to break. I still have trouble with the
recent change in "Clipboard" behavior.

Anyway, I don't have the trouble with Gnome programs like gedit (I have
configured both Debian and SUSE with multiple desktops on my new PC). I don't
log into the Gnome environment very often, because I've used KDE since 2003,
and I'm used to it. But I can invoke gedit from either desktop. Anyway, the
"Clipboard" is different in Gnome -- I don't think there's a stack of saved
items in that environment, because there isn't any system tray. At a minimum,
if there is a stack, I don't know where to find it. To make a long story short,
I suspect that KDE sticks its "hooks" pretty deep into the Linux / X11
environment to maintain the stack of items on the "Clipboard" that appears in
the system tray, because ^C and ^X work just about the same way in every
program that runs (including things like LibreOffice, and Firefox).

I'm not really an expert on Linux internals. But I wrote a lot of programs in
assembler (almost machine language) on IBM mainframes, so I know that
"system-wide" features can do unexpected things, because i/o interrupt routines
are very hard to get exactly right. (^C and ^V cause interruption events, which
are buffered inside the keyboard and passed through to the PIC / CPU on the
motherboard at somewhat sporadic intervals, as I understand it.)

Thanks again for helping, Christoph. If I think of something else that might be
useful information, I'll report it here.

--- Comment #2 from David C. Bryant  ---
(In reply to Christoph Cullmann from comment #1)
> Hmm, can not really reproduce that here.
> Is there a chance that you could update your KDE Frameworks version?

Probably not. I'm not ready to try compiling something as complex as that from
source. I'm basically a user who depends on pre-compiled binary packages, who
*used* to be a programmer (IBM mainframes, in assembly language, mainly -- I'm
old), and who is willing to help write KDE documentation.

I have observed this bug on three different Linux platforms, all of which are
installed on the same PC (Dell XPS 8930).

Neon 5.16.4(Plasma 5.16.5  Frameworks 5.62.0  Qt 5.13.1)
SUSE LEAP 15.1 (Plasma 5.12.8  Frameworks 5.55.0  Qt 5.9.7)
Debian 10.0(Plasma 5.14.5  Frameworks 5.54.0  Qt 5.11.3)

Kate / Kwrite version is 18.12.3 on SUSE, 18.08.0 on Debian. I don't have
either  Kate or KWrite installed on the Neon system any longer. That is where I
first noticed the problem (in late August). I eventually moved my KAddressBook
documentation project to the SUSE platform, and only used Neon for "arcanist",
to upload stuff to Phabricator. I uninstalled Kate / KWrite because there were
already enough updates to apply every time I booted into Neon.

As a former programmer, I understand that this is the worst kind of bug,
because it doesn't happen very often, and it's almost impossible to reproduce.
I don't suppose it will get resolved unless a lot of other people also report
it. Not to worry ... I haven't had the problem with gedit, and Kate / Kwrite
works fine when I'm editing smaller documents. So I can patch around the
problem.

I didn't report this as a bug for about two months after I first noticed it. I
knew Neon was buggy because there are a lot of new packages going in regularly.
I finally decided to file this bug after it bit me on three different
platforms.

It generally happened with very large documents (2,000 lines of text, or so).
I am certain it did in fact occur many times -- I would copy a small snippet of
XML text (or straight data, like half of a sentence) and paste it in exactly
one place (^C and ^V -- I rarely use the edit menu -- force of habit, I
suppose), but when I ran "checkXML5" (a syntax checking program for .docbook
files written in XML), it would report four or five errors, which were usually
about CDATA (text appearing in areas between XML tags that ought not contain
anything except white space) or breaking the DTD rules (XML tags appearing
somewhere where the syntax rules said "No way, José"). When I tracked the
errors down, they were all exactly the same "CDATA" or XML code sprinkled
around the document in locations far away from the place where my cursor had
been when I hit ^V. And I always recognized the errant character string as a
bit of text I had copied from one spot to another during my previous editing
session.

Thanks for looking into it, Christoph!

Sorry to tell you this, Aleix, but it's still a problem. I ran pkcon and got as
far as entering root's pwd. Then I got this message:

Fatal error: E: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/main amd64

   Summary: Discover crashes -- segmentation fault
   Product: Discover
   Version: 5.16.5
  Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: Updater
  Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
I hadn't started Neon in a few days (I'm running multiple versions of Linux on
one machine). When I booted it up today, the automatic updater said I had
updates to install.I said OK, Discover started up, I saw the wheel spinning for
about 2 seconds, and then it died with a segmentation fault.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot Neon
2. When automatic updater says "updates available" say "install then"
3. Discover runs for 2 seconds, then dies

OBSERVED RESULT
I tried, several times, to use the automatic bug reporting system to report
this crash. That runs OK for a while, then it asks me to install some missing
DEBUG packages. I say OK, but that never works. I get "the backtracking report
is useless". So I'm filing this bug report manually, from my Debian system.

EXPECTED RESULT
Automatic updater should fetch a bunch of updates and install them.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version: 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I guess I'll read up on using "apt-get" to fetch the updates, and see if I can
get the updates installed that way.

[kate] [Bug 412516] New: copied text pasted in multiple locations

2019-10-01 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=412516

Bug ID: 412516
   Summary: copied text pasted in multiple locations
   Product: kate
   Version: 18.12.3
  Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: kwrite
  Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
This is an intermittent error, but very annoying. It also occurs when I'm
running Debian. Sometimes, when I try to copy text from one spot in a document
to another location, the same text is pasted in several places, often far
removed from the "target" location where I had positioned the cursor before
hitting "Ctrl + v" (^v).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open any text document. select some text, hit ^c or ^x
2. move the cursor somewhere else and hit ^v.
3. usually this works the way it's supposed to.
4. but if you do it often enough, the bug will eventually bite you.

OBSERVED RESULT
Pastes text in locations far removed from the cursor's location when ^v is
pressed.

EXPECTED RESULT
Pastes the copied text only where it's supposed to.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: ✔
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.8
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.55.0
Qt Version: 5.9.7

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Kate has been my preferred text editor for many years. Up until about two
months ago, I had never experienced this problem. It only started happening
after I switched from Kate 17.12.3 (under openSUSE LEAP 15.0) to Kate 18.12.3
(LEAP 15.1).

The past couple of months I've been working on KDE documentation, so I have
been using the text editor a lot. The first few times this happened I was
totally confused. I would make a small change near say line 2000 of an XML
document, and when I ran "checkXML5" it would report errors at lines 46, 500,
and 750. The errors were caused by text getting inserted in a bad spot (like
after a  tag, and before the following  tag). I started using
Kwrite instead of Kate, but the problem persisted. So now I'm using gedit to do
most of my text editing. I haven't had this problem with the gnome text editor
... just the KDE versions.

[kmail2] [Bug 412363] Drafts folder doesn't work as intended

2019-09-27 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=412363

--- Comment #2 from David C. Bryant  ---
OK. So it's not really a bug. I guess I'll change the description to say the
documentation is out of date, and assign this task to myself.

[kmail2] [Bug 412363] New: Drafts folder doesn't work as intended

2019-09-26 Thread David C. Bryant
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=412363

Bug ID: 412363
   Summary: Drafts folder doesn't work as intended
   Product: kmail2
   Version: 5.9.3
  Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: composer
  Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: davidbry...@gvtc.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
The documentation (help:/kmail2/composer-window-menus.html) says, when
referring to the "drafts" folder, "Save the message in the drafts folder so you
can later edit and send it." ("Message" menu, "Save as Draft" option)

I can select this option, and it does save the message in "drafts". But there's
no convenient way to open this message for further editing. The draft message
is pretty useless if I'm not allowed to edit it. What happened to "...later
edit and send it"?

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a composer window ad type some text.
2. Select "Message" --> "Save as Draft".
3. Navigate to Drafts folder, select the new message, try to edit it.

OBSERVED RESULT
This used to work, through (I believe) version 5.6.x. I know it worked
correctly on openSUSE through release LEAP 42.3; I first encountered this bug
in openSUSE LEAP 15.0 (KMail 5.7.3). There was an option under the "Message"
menu that said "Edit Message". It was very handy. I could select any saved
message anywhere and say "Edit Message" ... Voila! it was in a message
composition window, ready to change / edit / send.

The "Edit Message" menu item has been supplanted by "Send Again", and that
option is always grayed out for messages that have been saved as drafts. I have
discovered a couple of workarounds. The most obvious one is to send an
incomplete message to myself, and then move the message from "sent-mail" to
"drafts". If I do that, the "Send Again" option is activated, and I can edit my
saved message. I can also move the message from "drafts" to "templates", and
then use the KMail "File --> New --> Message from Template" dialog to open and
edit the draft message. But if I have to do that, why make a distinction
between "drafts" and "templates" at all? I could just save the message as a
template in the first place.

EXPECTED RESULT
If I save a message as a draft, I should be able to open it for editing from
the drafts folder without a bunch of extraneous steps (send it to myself / move
it to "templates") thrown in.

Conceptually, there is a real difference between a "draft" and a "template". If
I'm writing a long message, or a sensitive one, and I want to save it for a day
or two, until I can give it the attention it deserves, it's a "draft" message.
If I have a form letter that will be used again and again, with just a few
variable details (who's the recipient, etc.), it's a template.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: ✔
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0
Qt Version: 5.11.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In thinking about this, I'm struck by the possibility that the basic structure
of K-Mail is becoming anachronistic. The first real e-mail program I ever used
was Netscape Navigator 2.0 running under a Windows 3.1 OS (80386 chip - 1995).
That program, the predecessor of Firefox / Thunderbird, had six "folders" for
messages: inbox, outbox, sent, trash, drafts, & templates. Guess what? KMail
uses the same six names.

The names themselves are redolent of a paperwork culture. The physical inbox /
outbox once sat on most managers' desks, filled with incoming and outgoing
memoranda on paper. Old paperwork was archived in a filing cabinet, inside
actual manila folders. The trash had to be emptied by the janitor at the end of
the day. The steno pool existed mostly to type up and revise items that were
marked "draft", and "templates" aka "form letters" were a staple in every large
business enterprise.

All this is obvious enough. I wonder, though: do younger people really
appreciate the meanings these old names once had? An inbox still makes sense,
because it takes time to read a message. An outbox is increasingly
anachronistic: most of the time, the message is only there for a split-second.
After that it's gone into the ether, with a copy in the "sent-mail" folder.
Given the obsession with text messaging, etc., I suppose the same thing will
eventually happen to "drafts". We can't stop to re-read the things we've
written. We're in far too much of a hurry for that! Nobody cares about
spelling, or good grammar, or punctuation anyway. Boring.

Maybe that's why "drafts" don't work right in KMail now. The next generation of
programmers sees this feature as a superfluity, and ignores it.

Please help me understand. I know that KDE software gets re-packaged by
different 
distributions (SUSE, Gentoo, Ubuntu, and many others).

After reading quite a bit of stuff, it looks to me as if the "Discover"
software package 
manager and the "Neon" operating system were the nearest thing to an "official"
early 
release of KDE software that exists. Am I wrong about that? (I understand that
if I really 
want to keep up to date I need to compile / build programs from the source
code. Maybe 
some day. Right now I just want to supply the missing documentation for
KAddressBook.)

I'm about half-way through the process of writing "index.docbook". I can pretty
easily 
work around little glitches in the software I actually work with. I guess I'll
just write some 
documentation, and let others fix any problems they notice. I appreciate your
assistance.
