Description Jean-Baptiste Mardelle 2011-07-05 14:02:37 UTC
Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

When setting a web adress as bugtracker in the KAboutData::setBugAddress function, for example "http://kdenlive.org/mantis", kbugreport thinks it is an email adress and reports an error (cannot send email).

On the other hand, drKonqi behaves correctly and redirects the user to the bugtracker website if the application crashes.

Code between kbugreport and drKonqi should probably be shared, but in the meantime, behavior should be consistent.

drKonqui code handling the url can be seen at:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdebase/kde-runtime/repository/revisions/master/entry/drkonqi/reportassistantpages_base.cpp#L233



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
In your application, set the bugadress to an url using KAboutData::setBugAddress, for example:

aboutData.setBugAddress("http://www.kdenlive.org/mantis");


Actual Results:  
In your application, go to help->report bug and try to submit something, it will fail.

Expected Results:  
kbugreport should redirect user to the web site
