To reproduce - open the "Info" dialog for the "Invert" effect in the "All Effects" KCM - select "Author" tab - look at the author's name - click the "E-Mail" icon Actual result: - a single author with name "Rivo Laks & Lucas Murray" is listed - the mailer is started with address "r...@hidden.url & l...@hidden.url" Expected result: - the two authors are listed separately - the mailer is started with each address separately
the author information is taken from the desktop file. Any idea how to properly specify multiple authors there?
s/ & /, /g (see fade/metadata.desktop)
(In reply to comment #2) > s/ & /, /g > > (see fade/metadata.desktop) In the hope that the community can take care of it: What Christoph wrote is "sed" syntax which just says that the & should be replace by a , So if the .dekstop file lists: Foo & Bar It has to become: Foo, Bar The errors are in .desktop files in the kwin/effects/ subdirectories of the kde-workspace git repository.
*never* do what the machine can do for you ;-) find -name "*.desktop" -exec sed -ie 's/\(X-KDE-PluginInfo-Email=.*\)\s\{1,\}&\s*\(.*\)/\1, \2/g' '{}' + find -name "*.desktop" -exec sed -ie 's/\(X-KDE-PluginInfo-Author=.*\)\s\{1,\}&\s*\(.*\)/\1, \2/g' '{}' + to just check find -name "*.desktop" -exec sed -e 's/\(X-KDE-PluginInfo-Email=.*\)\s\{1,\}&\s*\(.*\)/\1, \2/g' '{}' + | grep -E 'X-KDE-PluginInfo-(Email|Author)'
