In an attachment, a trivial one-line patch - correcting erratum. Just accept it, please.
Comment 4 Giorgos Tsiapaliokas 2011-01-10 10:41:31 UTC 
nice work thanks for the patch.

but i think that you should use http://reviewboard.kde.org/.
otherwise is very difficult for some1 with svn/git access to find your patch here.

I got a notification that the patch is submitted, but in release 4.6.3 released it was not. Perhaps in the 4.6.4 release ...

Hello! Plasma 4 was replaced by Plasma 5 four years ago by the KDE community. In that time we have made great strides in stability and functionality. We are closing all Plasma 4 bugs as most of them are no longer applicable to the new frameworks Plasma 5 is built upon. If you could, please re-test with the latest version of Plasma 5, and submit a new bug to "plasmashell" if you continue to have an issue. Thank you!
