Andi Clemens committed changes in [digikam] /:

The "hide thumbbar in fullscreen mode" setting was not respected in albumUI,
only in the image editor.
Also the state before entering fullscreen mode was not restored properly, e.g.
the toolbar was shown, although the user might have hidden it in the first
place.

While fixing the issue, I asked myself: We do we have these two fullscreen mode
settings in the editor window page of the setup dialog? They are used for
albumUI as well (maybe even for lighttable?).

Shouldn't these settings be moved to the "General" page?
Also, an action is missing in the context menu for returning from the
fullscreen mode if the toolbar is hidden. How should a normal user know the
shortcut for this action?
At least my parents wouldn't know it, and I guess they can be considered as
"normal users" ;-)

Albert Astals Cid committed changes in [okular/KDE/4.7] generators/poppler/generator_pdf.cpp:

Since sometimes we even change the pdfdoc pointer itself ;-)
This was working previously by pure luck (read bug in poppler :D)

KDE Base

Dawit Alemayehu committed changes in [kwebkitpart] src/kwebkitpart_ext.cpp:

Properly close all the QIODevice instances after use.

This should fix the issue where unnecessary session files are left lingering
around whenever kwebkitpart terminates normally.

Dawit Alemayehu committed changes in [kde-baseapps] /src:

- Prevent KonqMisc::konqFilteredURL from reparsing _url when the filtering test fails.
Since the filtering failure means _url is definitely invalid.

- Prevent both KonqFrameTabs::slotMouseMiddleClick functions from opening a URL when
it is not valid or is an error URL.

Christoph Feck committed changes in [kdelibs/KDE/4.7] kfile/kfileplaceeditdialog.cpp:
Jekyll Wu committed changes in [konsole] /:

Ensure %w and %# are also expaned in the 'Copy input' dialog

The fix is quite simple. Just move the existing code for expanding
%# and %w into Session::getDynamicTitle(), where all other tab title
formatters are expanded. That also makes the code simple and natural.


FIXED-IN:4.8

Sebastian Trueg committed changes in [nepomuk-core] /:

Handle parent folders or convertable URLs.

So far we converted URLs which actually exist. Now we also handle
partial URLs like /media/foo if a storage is mounted on /media/foobar.
This is handled by adding additional regex filters to the already
existing one.

Dawit Alemayehu committed changes in [kde-runtime] /ikws:

When creating a new web shortcut desktop file, make sure the desktopEntryName
is properly set. Otherwise, it will show up as an empty entry in the preferred
web shortcut list.


FIXED-IN: 4.7.3
(cherry picked from commit ef70e0fe2504a9b49457a01dce19f822f3237081)

Jekyll Wu committed changes in [konsole] /:

Allow activity notification to be triggered more than once.

The activity notification is now masked for a while after it is triggered.
That is basically what KDE3 konsole does. The mask interval is intended
to avoid the flooding of notification and is hardcoded as 15 seconds
at the moment. Maybe that interval should be user configurable.

FIXED-IN:4.8

Dawit Alemayehu committed changes in [kdelibs/KDE/4.7] /http:

Make sure both DELETE and PUT requests properly handle redirection requests
to address the issue reported in bug# 267063. In the process of addressing the
afformentioned bug the following related changes and cleanups were performed:

- Removed the check for HTTP_POST on redirection so that kio_http behaves
exactly like Firefox and Chromium except for HEAD requests. Converting
HEAD requests to GET makes no sense.

- Changed both ::del and ::put to leave the query component of the request
URL alone except for WebDAV requests. Not sure why it is removed for DAV
requests either.

- Changed ::del to properly handles any message body returned by the server.

- Renamed sendHttpPutError to sendHttpError and converted it to handle HTTP
response code errors for all HTTP methods, not just PUT.

- Changed proceedUntilResponseContent to use the new sendHttpError function
to send error to the client.

- Converted both ::del and ::put to use proceedUntilResponseContent since it
now correctly handles errors returned by the server.

David Faure committed changes in [kdelibs/KDE/4.7] /:

Fix DirectorySizeJob counting hardlinks multiple times.

This required to pass the device number and inode number from kio_file
to the job, which is only enabled when the details level is set to 3,
so as to not impact performance in other cases.

It's never too late to fix a bug from 2003.

Matěj Laitl committed changes in [amarok] /:

Properly recognize iPod 3G in MediaDeviceCache (extend iPod Touch 3G quirk)

We already had special case for devices whose product attribute
contained "iPod" in slotAddSolidDevice(), extend this special case also
for devices whose product attribute contains "iPhone".

This could fix bug 281738 and should end up in Amarok 2.5 beta 1, so
please test and reopen the bug if it still appeard in beta 1.

Now when the user wants to export the public key to a file and that file
already exists the user is asked about overwriting the file.


REVIEW:102786

Eike Hein committed changes in [yakuake] app/mainwindow.cpp:

Fix geometry in multi-screen cases

Commit 81484067 addressed and issue with multi-head setups where the
top strut of a window not visible on yakuake's display would be removed
from its work area. However, it did not consider bottom, right, and left
struts, and also prevented the left, right and bottom struts of windows
on the same display as yakuake from being removed from its work area.
This patch fixes this issue and tries to make the code more explicit.

Friedrich Karl Tilman Pülz committed changes in [publictransport] applet/publictransport.cpp:

Fix crash when resizing the widget when not in departure view

- When the departure view is not shown no filter widget is shown
but on resize the applet tries to adjust the filter widget,
which leads to a crash

c++11 support: folow spec and use/introduce expression-list where required

this way we can finally pass init-lists as arguments to a function call

NOTE: binary-expression is not (anymore?) in the spec and should probably
be reomved. Also the m_arguments* code, esp. related to binary-expressions
in the expressionvisitor should be cleaned up now as it's most probably
obsoleted by the new (simpler) code.

NOTE2: also fixes an issue with variadic template pack-expansion in
function pointers

Implement group-header layouting

The most tricky part for groups - the layouting - basically works
now for all views (grouping was available only in the icons views
for Dolphin 1.x) and is nearly equally fast as without groups.

Still open:
- Group headers are ugly screen rectangles
- Return valid groups in KFileItemModel instead of the currently
hardcoded testing values
- Dynamically turning on/off groups does not work currently, the
directory must be reentered

New autobrush type: Gaussian

The Gaussian autobrushes use a Gaussian blur for their fade, rather than
the linear function used by the default autobrushes. The result is that
the brushes look softer and have less of an edge, as well as having
fewer aliasing issues.

Amazon-based music store

We now have a music store, absed on the Amazon catalogue.

Searching works for DE, FR, JP, UK, US. Checking items out is broken atm
for US, but should work in a few days after we get a ok from Amazon.

Not yet implemented:
* viewing the shopping cart in Amarok
* limiting search to albums/tracks only
* track previews
* you might also see some albums without a price
* artwork is still missing.

Implement standing orders


REVIEW: 6805
GUI: Add checkbox for standing orders to fleet setup area. While this
item is checked larger values than ships currently available can be
entered. Standing order will be executed whenever enough ships are
available.
GUI: If a planet has standing orders the number of ships needed for them
is displayed in the planets tooltip.
GUI: Standing orders are marked in the fleet dialog and can be removed
there at any time.

Ralf Habacker committed changes in [kdewin-installer] /:

added dedicated start menu support for single packsge installation.

When installing single packages, we use the name and version of the installed
package to generate the start menu root entry. Otherwise the name 'KDE' and
the version number reported by kde4-config is taken.

The installer runs kwinstartmenu with the installed package name and version,
which are stored by kwinstartmenu in <install-root>/share/config/kwinstartmenurc
and are used to generate the start menu entries.

Storing the package name and version in a installation related config file
let kwinstartmenu be able to find the correct entry on further remove or
updates either from installer, kded winstartmenu module or installers.

Sebastian Trueg committed changes in [nepomuk-core/server/serviceControllerRed] server/main.cpp:

nepomukserver does not need to be a KApplication.

The only reason to use KApplication or rather KUniqueApplication before
was to ensure that only one server is running. However, we do not need
to be able to attach to a running server or provide it with command
line arguments. Thus, a simple DBus service test is perfectly sufficient
and allows us to scale the server down to a QCoreApplication.

That way we also do not expose the KApplication DBus interface. This is
important since we do not want anyone to call the quit method without
the server being able to gracefully shut down.

Ben Cooksley committed changes in [kde-workspace] /app:

Show a seperately named item named 'KDE System Settings' when not under KDE.
Whilst this will ultimately make KDE support harder, it is the only thing we can do to ensure that System Settings remains accessible outside KDE
