Description Chris Chittleborough 2008-02-24 21:19:37 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs
OS:                Linux

On systems where man pages are stored with lzma compression (eg., Mandriva 2008.0), the man: protocol cannot open them. See function stripExtension() in kdebase/runtime/kioslave/man/kio_man.cpp, which does not check for *.lzma files.

Which raises a more fundamental question: is there a kioslave for lzma?
