[systemsettings] [Bug 371640] New: File type assocations override Gnome preferences

[piedro via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=371640

Bug ID: 371640
   Summary: File type assocations override Gnome preferences
   Product: systemsettings
   Version: 5.8.2
  Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: kcm_filetypes
  Assignee: fa...@kde.org
  Reporter: piedro.kul...@googlemail.com

As I understand there is a file for desktop specific mime type preferences: 

The file association dialog doesn't write to "~/.config/kde-mimeapps.list". 

This leads to overlap with the Gnome desktop preferences. The mechanism for
using a desktop specific file type association file is already there
implemented in the XDG standard - it should clearly be used. 

Otherwise users have to reset their association preferences every time they
start another DE. 
Or build their mime type lists manually which seems a bit challenging...  

Please just change the location where the file type associations are stored so
they only apply to KDE and do not interfere with the preferences of Gnome and
XFCE and what ever else there is by using the intended methods... 

thx for reading,

The workaround doesn't help - I still can't change the *.aac association. If I
do it just jumps back to audacious in my case. 

Also there is no way to reset all the mime types or at least one by one to
default settings. 
The button "load defaults in the systemsettings is just greyed out. 

Frustrating because this seems a major problem for anyone actually working on
KDE. 

thx for reading, please fix this or give some workaround instructions,

this is still the case in plasma 5.8 on fully updated Arch. 

And it is really disturbing: There should be a simple way to set up user AND
desktop specific mime types. 

Also I wonder why nobody else is concerned -  is this a setup specific bug? 
It affected me with every setup I tried

I think there might be even a bit more of a problem. 

Also krunner shows documents from folders I excluded beforehand. I do backups
for customers, projects and other machines. I exclude these folders from
searching and indexing obviously. 

Krunner still finds stuff that doesn't belong to me. So it seems that the
settings for indexing and excluding folders from recent documents doesn't do
the job. 

Also excluding some folders or patterns at a later time should delete them out
of the database. 

Please ignore this comment if I misunderstood your approach and my concerns are
already included in the proposed solution. A users history of recent activities
and documents as useful as is should be the first focus of system security in
my opinion...

[Phonon] [Bug 371587] New: Multimedia Settings do not work as expected, many problems, also inconsistent settings and UI

[piedro via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=371587

Bug ID: 371587
   Summary: Multimedia Settings do not work as expected, many
problems, also inconsistent settings and UI
   Product: Phonon
   Version: unspecified
  Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: settings
  Assignee: sit...@kde.org
  Reporter: piedro.kul...@googlemail.com
CC: myr...@kde.org

1) - If I try to set the default device for Audio in the systemsettings the
subcatogories should adopt these values. Otherwise why have the top hierarchies
"audio" "recording" etc. at all? 

2) - If I change the profile of a device greyed out items items start appearing
can't be handled by the backend. All the solutions to remove them involve
clearing all settings which is very unsettling. 

3) - If I install the pulseaudio equalizer (lsdap or the qpaep) every time I
change the settings in there the output of my applications reverts to USB
headphones though this is clearly not set as preferred device.  

4) - the panel widget offers to set the sound volume for the different
application but doesn't allow to switch the output device (by design as I've
read) - regarding the fragile state of sound settings and preferences I think
this a poor decision as a quick way to switch back to headphones or desktop
speakers or equalized output. 

5) - In the system settings the top categories of the device priorities have a
little arrow indicating I should be able to collapse the categorie - clicking
on the arrow has no effect at all... 

6) - I get some notification informing me that the sound system reverted to
another device with higher priority - checking the device priorities shows that
the device it reverts too is set to a lower priority - so I feel my settings
are ignored.  

Maybe others have more issues with the settings. I know it is good practice to
tackle one bug at a time. In this case though I feel there is a conceptional
issue with the way the settings work and are presented. 

I also understand that pulseaudio is a bloated and complicated beast to tame
but from a users perspective there really should be simple ways to 

- Volumes: change individual volumes of devices and applications (very nicely
done with the new widget) 

- Output Speaker: change the output device of an application on the fly to
switch to headphones feor example when listening for a podcast while playing
music on the desktop speakers or quickly push the output of a skype call to the
speakers so others in the room can listen in 

- Bass/Treble Bias: a simple way to adjust sound quality like adjusting
bass/treble volume and balance between left and right speakers on a per device
basis (so connecting the same set of headphones for second time still remembers
enhanced bass setting). This is very important for people using a laptop to
connect to different speaker systems e.g. at friends or, more importantly, at
presentation rooms - if you do not have a way to reduce or enhance bass/treble
settings you easily ruin your presentation - and as KDE announce to focus on
professional use this should be a priority!

I have run some tests on kmail2 (latest version on Arch) a few weeks ago. 
While search provides relevant results now (as it seems at a quick glance) -
the virtual folders are still lacking: You can apply additional criteria to a
virtual folder but the changes have no effect on the content of the virtual
search folder. No matter how one edits the search criteria the results always
reflect the configuration of th initial search which created the search folder.

On the latest KDE 16.08 on Arch search still cannot be refined after creating a
search folder. 

The virtual folders' context menu shows the entry "edit search" but this does
not seem to work. 

If I add additional search criteria or remove some (which doesn't work at first
because the "remove" buttons are greyed out - you have to add one criteria
first then it's possible to delete...) - the results do not change at all. 

this doesn't work since kmail2 has been published - please remove the option
from the context menu if it will not be fixed. Otherwise it just leads to a
frustrating user experience.

I think I answerred to the wrong thread here - I can disable it with additional

So please ignore my comment. 

Though I still do not understand why autostart is enabled by default just
"because it works"? 

The Gnome file indexer tracker works with every desktop. Still you wouldn't
want it to autostart with KDE 
in the background, right?

who installs a secondary DE should not beforced to run KDE daemons in the

Kalarm is by default set to start with every desktop environment. 

Please add 

X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false
OnlyShowIn=KDE

or something along these lines to the default autostart configuration file in
/etc/xdg/autostart/. 

A KDE application should not be autostarted within other DEs unless explicitly
asked for. 

It's just a little change to the default configuration and leads to less people
wondering how to disable kalarm when starting Gnome which  has it's own
calendar and reminder service.

settings are used to start the baloo file daemon in the background no matter
what DE is used. 

> X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
> OnlyShowIn=KDE;GNOME;Unity;XFCE 

This is unnecessarily intrusive behaviour. Users installing another desktop
environment alongside KDE will have a distorted experience (like performance
issues - Gnome for example has it's own background service for indexing!). 

Since there are now additional background processes running which have no
function within their DE. 

Please change the configuration defaults to something like:  

> X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false
> OnlyShowIn=KDE

Since this is very old I do not know if anybody reads this - but I think this
is still a major concern: 

Kmail should be able to use and read mail dir created by evolution and vice
versa. 

Why is there a standard if kmail doesn't follow it - isn't that exactly what
standards are for? 
Also this is one of the most important arguments of the FOSS world against
proprietary software with each piece of software following company-owned
non-disclosed formats...

[Akonadi] [Bug 333798] KMail: Number of indexed emails doesn't match number of emails

[piedro via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333798

--- Comment #3 from piedro  ---
If one enables offline reading for Imap - 
and then unsubsribes to every single folder - 
than under "server subsciptions" re-subscribes to all folders again - 
now the folders get subscibed and while getting downloaded they get indexed... 

Thing is, now MOST of the mails get indexed but not all of them I get things
like 

inbox containing 212 mails , indexed 201 

so about every folder has a few mails missing! 

This is bad! If there is missing mail in the index you can't use the search in
any critical workflow. 

Also there is no indication whatsoever which mails are indexed iand which
aren't - so I do not even know which of my mails are included in a fulltext
search and which are not. 

Also I think it's not a very good habit to not answer or react to bug reports
at all. 

Soon no one will do any reports anymore since it's pointless in most cases. 
Then you, the devs, have to do your own testing  again.

Just to mention:

This should have a very high priority in my opinion as most forums, threads and
websites dealing with akonadi problems explicitly recommend deleting your
akonadi folder to remedy a corrupted database! 

So data loss will occur in many of these cases - adding to the perception that
kmail is not ready for productive use. Which it probably isn't without
excessive backups but I guess it's very important to put that "kmail might
loose your mails" credo in the land of outdated myths... 

So happy you found the culprit though.

I do not see this behaviour anymore, working on plasma 5, KF 15.20 on Arch
fully updated... 

So as far as I am concerned this is resolved, anyone?

please comment someone - this still doesn't work after the latest updates... 

I probably should stop reporting bugs entirely .- seems not to make any
difference whatsoever.

[Akonadi] [Bug 352502] .local/share/local-mail has to be the top level of local folders!

Why do I go through the trouble of reporting a clear mis-design in length and
make suggestions. 

There is always this call for participation, bug reporting and contributing to
the project... 

I start think this is wishful thinking. Nobody seems to even acknowledge any
entry - neither with a comment nor with any actual changes so why bother

After two years not even a comment... why does everybody always tell users to
contribute by reporting bugs? This clearly doesn't get any attention at all.

[Akonadi] [Bug 333798] KMail: Number of indexed emails doesn't match number of emails

Same here on Arch fully updated kmail 5.1.3, KF 5.20, QT 5.6 ... 

All my local folders are completely indexed but none of the Imap ones are. 
1922 mails, only 277 indexed, something like that for every single folder. 

Restarting the akonadi indexer via akonadi console doesn't change anything.
Switching off full text index for the folder and turning it on doesn't change
anything. 

How can this not get more attention? Any incomplete index poses a severe
problem to searching within mails - imho breaks it entirely. 

Please at least comment. 

thx, piedro

[kfind] [Bug 359494] Kfind crashes after never finishing searching the home folder

Oops, my bad! 

It's nothing to do with the "*.iso" file - as the message clearly says: 
[quote]...ignoring, not a text file:... 
[/quote] 

Sorry for that but the crashing continues: 

[code]Qt has caught an exception thrown from an event handler. Throwing
exceptions from an event handler is not supported in Qt. You must
reimplement QApplication::notify() and catch all exceptions there.

[kfind] [Bug 359494] New: Kfind crashes after never finishing searching the home folder

[piedro via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359494

Bug ID: 359494
   Summary: Kfind crashes after never finishing searching the home
folder
   Product: kfind
   Version: 2.0
  Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: crash
  Priority: NOR
 Component: general
  Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: piedro.kul...@googlemail.com

After searching for a name within the content of all files in my home folder -
kfind takes a very long time (many files I guess!) and then crashes in the end
with this message: 

[code]
kfind(13576) KQuery::processQuery: ignoring, not a text file: 
KUrl("file:///home/piedro/VMs/Isoz/linuxmint-17.3-cinnamon-64bit.iso")
Qt has caught an exception thrown from an event handler. Throwing
exceptions from an event handler is not supported in Qt. You must
reimplement QApplication::notify() and catch all exceptions there.

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
  what():  std::bad_alloc
KCrash: Application 'kfind' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit
KCrash: Connect sock_file=/home/piedro/.kde4/socket-arch/kdeinit4__0
[/code]

Now first of all - I do not know why kfind searches within *.iso files and
Virtualbox images... 
this should be avoided somehow (maybe by preference profiles?). 

Why it crashes - I do not know - but looks like a big bug to me. 

Essentially this crashes every search for the content of files. 



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. search for a name you know you have in some files in your home folder
2. let it kfind run a long time 
3. wait for it to crash

Actual Results:  
crashes 

Expected Results:  
shouldn't crash

If kfind is to be used within dolphin searches soon - it should not refer to
".kde4" directories, should it?

[kaddressbook] [Bug 359178] New: Kaddressbook does not download new contacts from Google Contacts

[piedro via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359178

Bug ID: 359178
   Summary: Kaddressbook does not download new contacts from
Google Contacts
   Product: kaddressbook
   Version: unspecified
  Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: major
  Priority: NOR
 Component: general
  Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: piedro.kul...@googlemail.com
CC: to...@kde.org

First of all: this is kaddressbook 5.1.1 (obviously the bug system is not yet
prepared for the up to date versions...) on Arch fully updated. 

Changes in Google Contacts will not be reflected by the local addressbook (set
up as akonadi ressource "Google Contacts"). Deleting the ressource and setting
it up fresh will download all contacts from Google Contacts but refreshing the
ressource has no effect at all. 

THis is not a configuration error (tested on fresh account) and by the way
evolution (Gnome online accounts that is) works fine. 

I get that no one wants to fix this but please just take the code from gnome
then - they got it right. 

p.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set up google contacts akonadi ressource 
2. add a new contact on Google Contact website 
3. refresh akonadi ressource 

Actual Results:  
contact list doesn't get synchronized - the new contact doesn't show up

Expected Results:  
obviously new contacts have to show up

[kaddressbook] [Bug 351567] Google contacts can't be changed via kaddressbook

[piedro via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351567

--- Comment #2 from piedro  ---
Well, the situation changed! Now on kadressbook in KDE Frameworks 5.18.0 this
is different: 

Upstream sync does work now! Which is great... 

Downstream sync doesn't work anymore. Changes on gmail.com do not show up in
kaddressbook. 
Pressing "refresh folder" doesn't have any effect. Deleting the addressbook and
set it up again as akonadi ressource "Gmail Contacts" shows all changes. This
new address book does not refresh properly also. CHnanging or disabling the
auto refresh interval does not have any effect. 

I guess this is an akonadi problem. Somehow caching old data and not
overwriting it properly when refreshing. 

Please comment someone. It's not like I am reporting an optical glitch. This is
a serious problem. If Google contact resources do not work at least take them
out of the KF5 ressources until this is fixed... 

thx, p.

Hello! 

Now I do not get any of these errors anymore. The only error messages in my
akonadiserver.error are these: 

Cannot pause an inactive timer 
Cannot resume a timer that is not paused. 
Cannot pause an inactive timer 
Cannot pause an inactive timer 
Cannot resume a timer that is not paused. 
Cannot resume a timer that is not paused. 

As I guess this is not related I'd consider this bug as solved!

Searching E-Mails seems to work better now but I have not tested the results
for consistency yet... 

Once a "search folder" is established pushing "edit search" and changing the
search criteria does NOT change the contents (the results) within the search
folder. This is still a broken feature. 

sad, p.

[kmail2] [Bug 352472] "Search mails" ignores all settings

[piedro via KDE Bugzilla]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=352472

--- Comment #4 from piedro  ---
Annoying:

- refining the search of a search folder has no effect... though the criteria
is changed the mails "found" are just a repeated result of the prior search - I
tried to search for a completely different name in the header but all the mails
of the last search are still in the search folder, no new mails are added, no
mails are removed... this happens everytime regardless of whether I change the
name of the search folder or not... 

- also it is not possible to copy a search pattern and create a new refined
search folder with a different name - the old search folder just gets renamed
(but, as mentioned before, doesn't change the content in any way...) 

- removing a search criteria is not possible, the button to remove a criteria
line is greyed out... 

- the search folder shows 240 results but the mail list area only shows around
30 mails... 

All in all, the virtual folder system is not in a working shape. I vote to
remove it while it's a mere proof of concept (not even as such it is
convincing!) - it scares of users from kmail. If searches do not provide
reliable results. You have to trust your mail system if you want to work
productivly with it.

Sadly now on KDE applications 5.12 and plasma 5.5 dolphin search still does not
work. 

Please look into it - a file browser without search doesn't work at all for
many users ...

[systemsettings] [Bug 354121] The left panel menu uses wrong fonts /wrong font rendering

Sorry I cannot help anymore, it's been some time now and I had to work with the
machine here. 

I replaced all fonts again with Cantarell. Also tried Noto Sans. These seem to
be better. 

I do not use Amarok anymore for that reason. It still seems (I just tried to
answer your question) that the middle pane uses all kinds of fonts and sizes,
certainly it doesn't respect system fonts but I do not care anymore... 

Within systemsettings the side panes seem to use the same font and styling now
which is Noto sans. 

I am sorry not to be more helpful but I had to come up with a solution quick,
changed the screen resolution from 1920x1200 to 1440x990 and forced 96 DPI
(which is wrong - my monitor physically has 82dpi!) then changed all fonts to
the gnome fonts. Now everything looks different but I can work with it and I do
not have the inconsistencies described... 

I cannot change back now to the old setup for the bug hunt. I regret that as I
am always very unhappy that so many bugs aren't handled at all. Now you are
looking into this and I can't provide more detail. 

It's a shame I cannot be more helpful. If you want you can delete this bug and
wait whether someone else finds this again. Maybe this all goes away anyway
with the next updates... 

As a "worth trying" workaround (for those who have problems with font
consistencies) I recommend using the gnome fonts: Cantarell, Ubuntu, Noto
These seem to render more consistent than the KDE defaults... but maybe this is
just my setup. 

thanks, 
piedro
