Possible 4.3.0 blocker in the Konsole KPart?


Hi,

this one seems to be fairly serious:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=186745

Basically, when you open the context menu in the
Konsole KPart, most of the time you'll end up
with the string "No text" overlayed over the ter-
minal in the top-left corner. Also, the context
menu has regressed vs. 4.2.x, removing several
items - I think the two are probably one and the
same bug, some sort of XMLGUI merge problem.

Essentially, it's a highly noticable visual
glitch and a functional regression.

it's not a data loss bug, just not a very pretty thing. it also only seems to 
affect the top-left of the scrolled viewport. this is something that would be 
very good to fix in 4.3.1 for sure, but i don't think it's a release blocker?

I'm not sure I would call it a *blocker* either, but this is *the* terminal 
application we're talking about.  The effect is also prominent in Yakuake so 
it probably affects all users of KonsolePart.

Dunno, that's what I'm wondering :).

It also means the "Scrollback" sub-menu has disappeared
from the context menu, though, so it's also a feature
regression. But it won't eat anyone's children, I guess.

It's actually specific to the KPart, so yeah, I'm
going to drown in bug reports about it (I maintain
Yakuake), and it also affects Dolphin, Kate, etc.

microblog plasmoid fix in 4.3 branch, but not in 4.3.0

hello packagers and release team ...

if you're packaging up 4.3.0, you may want to include this patch:

	http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1004203

to kdeplasma-addons, which fixes the submission of updates to 
twitter/identi.ca from the microblogger plasmoid.

it's already in branch (as you can see in the above link) for 4.3.1, but it'd 
be good to include it in your 4.3.0 packages as well if you can.

it doesn't affect konsole itself, just users of the kpart (at least according 
to my testing here.. shout if i'm wrong)

Thanks and all, tried it, but on posting anything, plasma crashes for 
me.  I'll post more details (with bug reference, backtrace once I get 
all the debuginfo bits installed).
