Description

It would already be very helpful if such an "About" section would show the shared object or qml file name. With that it would already be easier to identify the package that provides the file. If there are some unique translations used, one can try following page to get a hint to which package that belongs: https://l10n.kde.org/dictionary/search-translations.php All applets do have an "About" page now, but they don't list the package/repo name or a bug URL. Adding a bug URL or even a "Submit a bug" button seems reasonable to me. This information could be pulled from the AppStream data. *** Bug 414747 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Do applets have appstream data? I was not aware that we have a mapping of applet-> bugzilla component somewhere Yes, they do, as they show up in Discover. They could all probably have the bug report URL of their parent package.

Committed on 24/09/2022 at 19:22. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Add new bugReportUrl standard metadata property This allows the plugin to specify a URL at which bug reports can be filed. This is typically different from its website, which is why we need a new property to support it.

Committed on 28/09/2022 at 19:45. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. AppletConfiguration: add "Report a Bug" button to config window When an applet's JSON metadata defines the bugReportUrl key, its Configuration page will now display a "Report a Bug" button that the user can click on to quickly and easily file a bug. This should make it easier for people to file targeted bug reports that are automatically filed to the right place so they don't need extra work by big triagers to move them. If the applet does not define the bugReportUrl key in its JSON metadata file, it doesn't get this button, and there are no visual changes.
