Description Stefano Crocco 2008-03-18 10:58:29 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 4.2.3 (Gentoo 4.2.3 p1.0) 

Krunner doesn't seem to store settings like history and custom setting for completion mode. I know that history used to be saved (I can't say when it stopped working). Then I noticed that, after logging in, I couldn't reach the last program I launched using the up arrow key: pressing it give me another entry. This made me think that history wasn't being saved anymore and that the entry I got was the first one in the history when history stoppedd being saved. I then tried removing the .kde/share/config/krunnerrc file, to see if some old configuration was messing things up. After that, history stopped working completely across sessions. I looked at the kde/share/config/ directory and found out that the krunnerrc file had not been recreated as it usually happens with kde applications when such files don't exist.

Same here on SVN (2008-04-03). Krunner does not save history and completion mode.
Comment 2 Andrew Beames 2008-06-27 19:46:11 UTC
krunner 0.1; kde 4.0.4; suse 11.0

commands entered are not saved between sessions.

Previously (kde 3.5; suse 10.3) ALT-F2 gave all previous commands.
They were stored in ~/.kde/share/config/kdesktoprc in key [MiniCli]
Comment 3 Carsten Schlipf 2008-07-20 22:18:12 UTC
krunner 0.1; kde 4.1 RC1; kubuntu hardy heron

same behaviour here.

Comment 8 kavol 2008-10-16 16:38:30 UTC
same on Fedora; btw, it looses history not just between sessions but also after a crash, but it is obvious from the nature of the problem

SVN commit 875278 by dimsuz:

- Make krunner actually save its config
- Move some config keys to the group they logically belong to
- Make sure that completion object is populated with history items
