Description Yann Ormanns 2010-06-27 21:49:11 UTC

Version:           4.4.0 (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                Linux

In my taskbar, I have a shortcut to /home/username and the trashcan-plasmoid. Both are opened with Konqueror (I have installed version 4.4.4). When I start Konqueror out of the taskbar (by clicking on one of the shortcuts I mentioned), the program repeatings opening new windows. When Konqueror is started out of KMenu, only one window is opened (as it should be). 
Yesterday, I upgraded to KDE 4.4.4, but the problem persists only since a few hours. I have rebooted my machine, but the problem persists. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Start Konqueror out of the taskbar, for example by clicking at the trashcan-plasmoid or a shortcut to /home/username.

Actual Results:  
Konqueror repeats opening windows. After closing them by pressing alt+f4 repeatingly until no open window of Konqueror is left, Konqueror stops opening new windows.

Expected Results:  
Konqueror should open one window per click on the item in the taskbar.

Other shortcuts in the taskbar (Konsole, Amarok, Thunderbird, Firefox...) open only one windows per click.

Update: when opening Konqueror by typing "konqueror /home" or something similar in a terminal, the error appears, too. 
=> So the problem appears when opening a place on the filesystem with konqueror.

(I'm completely new to this bugtracking-system here, I apologize for selecting perhaps the wrong categories)

Solved the problem by installing dolphin. Konqueror seems to depend on it in some way.
