Description Kevin Kofler 2013-02-12 06:25:29 UTC
In the update notes, for each link, instead of one line with a clickable link, Apper 0.8.0 now shows 2 lines, one with a clickable URL and one with the link's description which looks clickable, but fires up a Konqueror on my home screen when I click on it.

I'm using Fedora 18, apper-0.8.0-2.fc18. No such issue in Fedora 17 (apper-0.7.2-4.fc17).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Apper.
2. Check for updates.
3. Click an update to see its update notes.
Actual Results:  
* http://… → clickable
* Description of the above link → click leads to home screen

Expected Results:  
* Description of the link → clickable, leads to http://…

I assume the home screen is what Konqueror brings up when you pass it no or an empty URL.

Thank you for the bug report.

As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists.

This project is unfortunately no longer maintained.

If a new maintainer wants to step up and take care, the project is archived here:

https://invent.kde.org/system/apper

You can just clone it in your private namespace on invent.kde.org and if you have started to work on it and fixed/implemented something get it reviewed and the project unarchived.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
