Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.4) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: GCC 4.1.1 OS: Linux Under the 'Edit' Menu there is an entry called 'Find in Files' which is active and available even though KFileReplace, the app it calls, is not installed. Expected behaviour would be for the menu item to not appear if the application it depends on isn't installed. In general Quanta has unexpected behaviour with regards to its plugins. The 'plugins' are standalone applications that would be better served being Quanta plugins. Alternatively there could be standalone applications in addition to standalone Quanta plugins. Perhaps more like the Kontact framework interacts with KMail. As it is Quanta 'expects' the applications to be there. This expectation isn't being served by Quantas architecture which doesn't make those apps clear dependencies.

I fixed the problem now. But an explanation regarding Quanta's plugins. They are just KParts, nothing Quanta specific like in case of KOffice or Kontact. For many of such KParts there is a standalone application as well, acting as a shell around the part. This is the case of KFileReplace, KImageMapEditor, KLinkStatus, Cervisia and many other applications. So there *are* standalone applications for the plugins itself, just that Quanta is able to run the part instead of application, having this way a more pleasant integration of two different applications. Oh, and Quanta warns on startup if an important plugin is missing.
