Description Robert Persson 2005-03-12 23:11:18 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

Bug 75202 is marked as resolved when it quite plainly is not. Resolved would mean that no user would find that instances of konqueror loaded by default that they couldn't even see were preventing them from using their cd or dvd drive properly.

Resolved does not mean that, by going to some obscure web page they don't even know about, novice users will find a workaround for a problem they might not even understand well enough to express as a google query.

The KDE bug crunchers must understand that workarounds are most definitely not solutions.  No mattter how clever the hacks, KDE cannot be a useful environment for non-nerds if it behaves in counter-intuitive and unpredictable ways.

So the bug is: The KDE bug handling system is out of touch with reality.

Sorry, we do not magically make versions released before the fix was done have the fix
Comment 2 Dirk Mueller 2005-03-12 23:20:05 UTC 
just have a look at http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78322
Comment 3 Robert Persson 2005-03-12 23:31:58 UTC 
The bug was marked as resolved over a year ago.  If it was then the fix should have appeared in KDE 3.3.2, but it hasn't. Therefore it is not resolved.  Therefore there is something amiss with the bug handling system, which is precisely the problem I have reported here.

Bug 78332 isn't closed.
