Description David 2014-12-06 23:39:08 UTC

When attempting to view HTML messages, KMail shows a message window saying: "Ne eblas lanĉi la donitan komandon. La dosiero aŭ dosierujo file:///kmail.showHTML ne ekzistas."

KMail successfully shows HTML messages when the interface language is set to English, French, German, or Chinese.

This can be reproduced in any fairly recent version of Debian or Kubuntu.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. From help menu, select the option to change interface language
2. Set primary language to Esperanto (assuming Esperanto language is installed)
3. Select any message with HTML content. 

4. If KMail is not set to automatically render HTML, then find the red box at the top of the message that says : 

"Noto: Ĉi tio estas HTML-mesaĝo. Pro sekureco estas nur montrata la plena HTML kodo. Se vi fidas la sendinton de la mesaĝo, vi povas aktivigu la formatitan HTML-rigardon per premo de la HTML-butono."

and click the show-HTML link inside.


Actual Results:  
KMail showed a message dialog indicating that the file "file:///kmail.showHTM" does not exist. No rendered HTML was shown.

Expected Results:  
I expected a rendered HTML e-mail to appear in the message pane.

This appears to be related somehow to the interface language settings. Bug does not appear for German, Chinese, French or English interfaces but only when interface language is Esperanto.

kmail version please ?
Could you make a screenshot about your error ?

Comment 2 Laurent Montel 2014-12-07 06:37:46 UTC

For me it's a i18n problem.
I download i18n eo source and there is not kdepim* in master
=> I can't fix it.
Sorry.

Ok it's a translate problem.
But in master kdepim is not translated.
real url must be:  "kmail:showHTM"
=> it's a translate problem
and I can't fix it.

I suspected that was the cause and I would be happy to try and fix it myself, but I don't know what to do with Lokalize nor how to submit a translation.

Kinda new at this sort of software "participation" thing... :-p

Comment 7 Laurent Montel 2014-12-08 08:42:26 UTC

Even if you can fix in 4.13 it will not apply and in 4.14/master kdepim is not translated.
I don't know why.

Comment 8 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 18:14:23 UTC

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Comment 9 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:28:09 UTC

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
