Description Nicolas L. 2009-02-16 01:53:24 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

Bug reported by a mdv User.

"At least, the order in which they are displayed has no visible relation to
either name or description. This is something new, because a couple of releases
back it definitely was sorted according to name and locale."

I have them sorted for some time; now list is completely unsorted again. I tried switching language (thinking it may remember old sort order) without success - list is sorted neither in English nor in Russian. Nor do I see any possibility to reorder items manually.

This is most likely related to Qt 4.5, as I did not have this problem until I upgraded.

I have seen it before 4.5 as well.

Comment 4 Maciej Mrozowski 2009-05-29 02:36:48 UTC

You may be right - happens with any KDE4 on Gentoo here I have (4.2.3, trunk) - both on Qt 4.5.1.
Maybe devs in KCategorizedItemsView relied upon some implicit behaviour of Qt 4.4 that is no longer a case anymore and items need to be sorted when added explicitly (just a guess).

It would be nice to have it fixed before last 4.2.x patch release is out (but it has been tagged apparently already).

Comment 5 Andrey Borzenkov 2009-05-29 04:54:28 UTC

Still valid for 4.2.87/Qt 4.5.1

Comment 6 Maciej Mrozowski 2009-07-15 15:14:01 UTC

Still valid in 4.3 branch, is it going to be fixed before 4.3 release?

Comment 7 Dario Andres 2009-08-19 19:52:03 UTC

BTW, this appears fixed for me here using:

Qt: 4.5.2 (KDE-Qt git commit 5b7a2eb42acfdea07c6075556cb43e2c95852145
        Date:   Tue Jul 28 14:10:47 2009 -0300)
KDE: 4.3.64 (KDE 4.3.64 (KDE 4.4 >= 20090812))
kdelibs svn rev. 1013119 / kdebase svn rev. 1013119
on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.30.4

(even when i can't find the commit or change that would be cause this)
Can anyone else check this ?
Thanks

Comment 8 Jonathan Thomas 2009-08-19 21:07:31 UTC

Fixed for me as well here with KDE 4.3.0 and Qt 4.5.2.

Comment 9 Maciej Mrozowski 2009-08-25 03:03:18 UTC

I suppose it deserves RESOLVED/UPSTREAM, definitely issues is gone with Qt upgrade (to >=4.5.2).
