Description Tom Kaitchuck 2005-04-24 00:05:55 UTC
Version:           3.4 (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
OS:                Linux

In Mandriva 2005's compilation of KDE 3.4 if you try to update the association for some file type through `kcmshell filetypes` and click OK, it will present the "Updating system configuration" progress bar. However when it completes it simply starts back at the beginning (of the progress bar) again.

I had this today with associating azureus to application/x-bittorent with KDE 3.4.2 on PCLinuxOS in konqueror file association preference panel
Comment 2 Bram Schoenmakers 2007-02-03 19:52:20 UTC
Is this still an issue in KDE 3.5.x?
Comment 3 Bram Schoenmakers 2007-03-03 00:40:53 UTC
No feedback and was not able to reproduce anymore in KDE 3.5.6.
Comment 4 Murray Colpman 2009-07-03 20:38:04 UTC
Just started happening to me in KDE4.2 in Kubuntu. I've noticed it in file associations and menu editor, but I haven't looked so it's probably somewhere else. Can ysomeone please reopen?

No need to reopen, there's still an open bug about this: bug 166792
