Description Xavier Olive 2005-04-07 17:46:27 UTC

Version:           inconnu (using KDE 3.4.0, Debian Package 4:3.4.0-0pre3 (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.9-2-k7

Using kaddressbook-plugins : I want to create a mailing list.

Then, if I want to activate the mailing list creator, I must click Kontact/Configuration/View Extension etc. (french version)

But the menu View extension is empty.

If I reinstall the .deb (from http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org) it works properly, as long as I don't open the integrated KMail.
If I switch to the mail, and switch back to Kaddress, I can't see anymore the content of "View Extension" (I don't want to see always the bar for creating mailing list)

It still works properly if "apt-get --reinstall install kaddressbook-plugins"

Strange...

Note to developer:

Problem:
The bug is caused by the fact that this menu is build by KActionList...
When switching to another part and back, the KActionList is removed by the KXMLGUI framework and not added by the application again.

Solution:
Either the application has to readd the KActionList whenever its switch to it
or we add this functionality to the framework...

Akregator has the same problem as well btw

Hi,

the bug is fixed in kaddressbook now, nevertheless it has to be fixed in the other components as well.

Ciao,
Tobias
