Description Zé 2010-05-12 01:14:08 UTC

Version:           2.4.3 (using 4.4.3 (KDE 4.4.3), Mandriva Linux release 2010.0 (Official) for x86_64)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.31.13-desktop-1mnb

When activating kget as konqueror downloader, it doesnt let konqueror render/open some types of files.

Take this example, when running konqueror to open http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/  it then prompts a small window saying:

Open 'http://svn.mandriva.com/cg...n/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/'?
Type: application/x-cgi


If i simply desactivate kget as konqueror download manager and close kget, i rerun konqueror to open http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/   and now it simply rendes the page without prompting anything.

This site is where are listed mandriva packages, so its a heavy load and it takes sometime to display the webpage.

This but seams to exist for quite sometime but only now i was able to figure out why sometimes i was prompted with that messages and others time it simply displayed the page.

Mmh, I can't se anything that is wrong on the KGet side... maybe there has to be an exception for that filetype on the konqueror side of things?

In fact wasnt easy at all to discover from the problem came.

A fact is that this only happens if kget is set as the konqueror download manager

Create an exception in konqueror?
Can you be more specific?

Aka parse those x-cgi mimetypes always as website...

The only way I can see this being a Konqueror issue is if the site incorrectly sends a Content-Disposition header for the link you provided. Otherwise, the kget konqueror plugin was doing something incorect. 

Having said that I personally cannot reproduce this issue even with KGet configured as the download manager for Konqueror. The fact that the Konqueror plugin extension classes were rewritten and revamped for KDE 4.6 might have something to do with it. Either way this works correctly for me. Do you still have this issue in the recent versions of KDE, v4.6 and up ?

The problem is that can no longer be reproduced since the link i provided is no longer working the same way, since before used to show all packages links and now the packages links are showed by page.
Also now is used a different ViewVC version, before was version 1.1.11 and now its 1.1.2.
There wwere also improvements in kget so im not really sure if this problem was really fixed, bug since cant be produced anymore i think its better to close it, if meanwhile ill see some like i reported ill reopen the bug with current usefull information.
