Description misimonian 2014-05-28 21:47:32 UTC 
This bug report has been filed along with two others that refer specifically to kget -rekonq interactions. This third bug is independent of rekonq given that I have tried this with midori as well, with identical results.

I open a browser and navigate to gmail. I open an email with a jpg attachment. I choose to view the attachment and the image comes up.

Whether I then drag the image to the kget download basket or right-click and choose 'save' (in which case kget does not automatically pop up. I have to actually click its icon in the icon bar), kget appears to download the file. What it downloads, however, is a zero byte text file. I have tried this with both rekonq and midori.

This does not happen with photos opened through a google image search. For example, in both rekonq and midori, searching for 'dog' in 'images' and right-clicking produces a normal download, though I still have to actually click on the kget icon to see that the image has been captured.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install kget on Mint 13
2. open a browser and navigate to gmail. open a file containing a jpg.
3. display the image, then attempt to download using kget
Actual Results:  
a text file of size 0 is generated

Expected Results:  
the photograph should be downloaded to the download location

Which version of rekonq and kget do you use? Please run "kget --version" and "rekonq --version" and add the output here.
Comment 2 misimonian 2014-05-29 19:30:59 UTC 
rekonq is 2.4.2
kget is 2.13.0
kde development platform is 4.13.0

I hope I did the right thing when I created a set of bugs rather than one...

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

How are you attempting to save the JPG, drag and drop? copying the link?

Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved. I've set the bug status to "needsinfo" pending your response, please change back to "reported" or "resolved" when you respond, thanks.
