Description Bertil Kronlund 2005-12-22 13:40:32 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

The Help page 'smbmount' (Section 8 in Unix manual) will not print on my locally connected HP psc950 printer (cups) but other KDE help center pages like 'mount' and 'smbmnt' prints as expected. Comparing the html-page in the /usr/share/doc/samba-doc and the converted (twice) KDE help shows that after two "conversions" (see foot note and of document) something have been corrupted (content and also the help file may contain invalid non-printable sentances.)

To reproduce error:
- start KDE help center
- chose the search tab
- write "smbmount" in the search field
- tick scope: Unix manual pages
- push search button
- select the document found (smbmount - mount an smbfs)
- select the document and view it/print it

Typo: Look below Note and before Options one sentence is missing.

As will all bug squaching one must ask what will the corrective action be to avoid this to happen again (and other more critical bugs). The syphtoms in this case may be trivial but the process behind should be reviwed and corrected.

Cheers
