Bug ID: 381088
Summary: "report bug" from KDE applications does start infinite
number of wine processes
Product: kdelibs
Version: 4.14.0
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: kbugreport
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: p...@7gods.org
Target Milestone: ---
I had clean install of KDE Neon distribution, added some applications (many,
including wine), but I didn't touch any specific MIME config, OS was in the
state as it was left by doing `apt-get install <apps>` after installation.
When I tried the button "Launch Bug Report Wizard" in kmahjong, the `xdg-open
http://bugs.kde.org/wizard.cgi` was ran, which ended by launching infinite
number of wine instances (not sure about exact process name, wineservice
maybe).
After I did open firefox -> preferences -> set as default browser, the "Launch
Bug Report Wizard" in kmahjong works as expected, and opens the bug report
wizard in Firefox.
So it looks to me like the KDE neon does not set any default browser, or the
settings is invalid, but how the wine gets picked, and why infinite number of
instances is being launched?
I understand this is more like bad configuration, then code bug, but imagine
unexperienced user watching his task list filled with infinite processes after
he just did want to report some bug in some KDE app, maybe some config sanity
check would be possible? Or reconfigure neon to set Firefox as default browser
right after install?
