Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.1) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux (first reported at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=162540 ) I think that this happened after the last update I performed. There are now duplicate menu items in many KDE applications. For example: -KWrite has a double "Configure Toolbars..." -KDevelop has a double "Configure Editor..."
Does a newly-created user also have the same problem?
Yes. The exact sequence of my actions was: 1. see bug, report bug; 2. create new user (and start using it *only*); 3. update KDE from 3.5.1 to 3.5.2; 4. check for the bug again.
Wait, no. In KWrite the problem is present even with a new user. In KDevelop the problem is *not* present with a new user.
Confirmed: KDE 3.5.2 r552440 (the KWrite one at least).
Confirmed: KDE 3.5.3 (KWrite)

Does it happen with kwrite/kate only? or also other kde apps?
KWrite only; Kate is okay. KDevelop used to have this, too. However, for some reason I can't reproduce it in KDevelop anymore. So it's just KWrite.
The bug is still present in KDE 3.5.4, SUSE Linux 10.1.
Confirmed with KDE 3.5.4 on Kubuntu Dapper. I should note that the first entry has "b" as the accelerator, and the second has "o". In Kate, the only entry has "b" as the accelerator, so I presume the second one is the extra one. Added my votes.
Re: Comment 10 Both entries have the 'b' accel here.
Stefan, what version of KDE on what version of what distro are you using?
Re: Comment 12 As I already wrote, KDE 3.5.4 on SUSE Linux 10.1.

Created attachment 18508 [details] Patch against 3.5 branch , fixing the issue.
Fixed into svn now. Regards
Laurent, has that svn branch a version number, yet? -- I am using KDE 3.5.5, Debian/Etch. In Kwrite, the bug's still present, and the accelerators are B and O.
I have upgraded to 3.5.6 (Kubuntu packages) for this purpose alone and the only difference I see is that previously there were two items at the bottom of the menu and now there is one at the top and one at the bottom. Adding screenshots.

Please reopen this. Persists in KDE 3.5.7 as on 2007-Oct and KDE 4 is so near. This needs to be fixed at least in KDE 4.0.
I confirm the bug persists in 3.5.7, at least.
Can you reproduce in KDE4?
The problem is that Laurent committed something different from Ismail's patch [1], which he did before seeing this bug, and which, somehow, fixed the problem for him. Here's a patch that should fix it for everybody. But KDE 3.5.8 was tagged 2 days ago and no further 3.x releases are planned, so I won't be committing it. As for KDE 4, the bug is fixed there -- I don't know how or when -- thus I'm closing this as fixed.
